re: Real Player causing HAVOC! Thursday, January 2, 2003 at 4:28 pm Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Ed (2 messages posted) Just to clarify...I only deleted the RNADMIN.DAT file from c:\windows\application data\Real directory. I also used msconfig to turn off rnadmin and tkbellexe. Since then my machine has worked fine. I'm writing this again as another machine at work (we have 5) now has this rnadmin problem!! So I came here to double check what to do. Big thanks to JmC who replied to Leah giving me the above advice in this forum. Nice one:) On Monday, December 30, 2002 at 1:54 pm, Ed wrote: > > >Thanks from me as well regarding this problem.
