re: Question about 'What to do about error messages during Windows startup'

When I was upgrading my landlord's company win98 computers one of the employees had
this norton "couldn't find 'navap.vxd' file" on power up. Even though this could
be "enter" keyed through, it was a hassle. After it set up and stabilized, I clicked
"Start", scrolled up to "Run", entered "regedit" and "Return". In REGEDIT I chose
the "Edit" key, then "Find". I entered "navap.vxd" in the search window, hit the
enter button, and waited to see if it was found. To my satisfaction, search found
it in a subfile called "navap". I highligted the "navap" folder by clicking on it,
then clicking on the "edit" tool and then choosing delete I took it out. Upon subsequent
power up the error didn't appear. YEAH! I will admit I made previous screw ups by
not saving the registry file by exporting it to "desktop", but I had to re-ghost
the drive "AGAIN". But I figure my mistake was I didn't delete the "navap" folder
the first time.
