re: Major Mistake Saturday, April 21, 2007 at 12:45 pm Windows Me Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Ms. Eagle (32675 messages posted) You're absolutely right about getting this taken care of with hands on help. The Sys C: command is appropriate in situations like this. I did tell her, it must be a boot (startup) disk for the exact same version of ME installed. I've seen it used many times (by knowledgeable/experienced professionals, and users) and have suggested it myself in other similar situations, i.e. Operating system not found message, with successful results. I wouldn't post instr. that aren't applicable in some way. :) Or, if she can manage the repair/reinstall instr. herself, that's certainly worth a try and should take care of any registry/OS corruption that registry cleaner may have caused... without a need for any other disks. It kind of seems unlikely there's an issue with any of her hardware, since this problem occurred after running a Rogue registry cleaner which wiped out "who-knows-what-all".=( Blocking Unwanted Parasites with a Hosts File Written in response to: re: Major Mistake (C K: Saturday, April 21, 2007 at 10:18 am) Responses to this message: re: Major Mistake (C K: Saturday, April 21, 2007 at 4:02 pm) All messages in this thread [show all] Major Mistake (Linda: Thu, Apr 19, 2007, 7:21 am) re: Major Mistake (Don: Thu, Apr 19, 2007, 4:01 pm) re: Major Mistake (Linda: Thu, Apr 19, 2007, 5:07 pm) re: Major Mistake (Linda: Thu, Apr 19, 2007, 5:15 pm) re: Major Mistake (Steve: Thu, Apr 19, 2007, 7:05 pm) re: Major Mistake (Linda: Thu, Apr 19, 2007, 7:43 pm) re: Major Mistake (Steve: Thu, Apr 19, 2007, 7:56 pm) re: Major Mistake (Ms. Eagle: Thu, Apr 19, 2007, 11:55 pm) re: Major Mistake (Steve: Fri, Apr 20, 2007, 11:17 am) re: Major Mistake (Ms. Eagle: Fri, Apr 20, 2007, 11:33 am) re: Major Mistake (Alan Masterman: Thu, Apr 19, 2007, 8:16 pm) re: Major Mistake (Ms. Eagle: Thu, Apr 19, 2007, 11:50 pm) re: Major Mistake (Ed: Fri, Apr 20, 2007, 4:50 am) re: Major Mistake (Linda: Fri, Apr 20, 2007, 10:36 am) re: Major Mistake (Linda: Fri, Apr 20, 2007, 11:01 am) re: Major Mistake (Linda: Fri, Apr 20, 2007, 11:23 am) re: Major Mistake (Ms. Eagle: Fri, Apr 20, 2007, 11:44 am) re: Major Mistake (Linda: Fri, Apr 20, 2007, 1:39 pm) re: Major Mistake (Linda: Fri, Apr 20, 2007, 2:11 pm) re: Major Mistake (Ms. Eagle: Fri, Apr 20, 2007, 2:25 pm) re: Major Mistake (Linda: Fri, Apr 20, 2007, 4:43 pm) re: Major Mistake (Ed: Sat, Apr 21, 2007, 4:52 am) re: Major Mistake (Linda: Sat, Apr 21, 2007, 6:54 am) re: Major Mistake (C K: Sat, Apr 21, 2007, 10:18 am) re: Major Mistake (Ms. Eagle: Sat, Apr 21, 2007, 12:45 pm) re: Major Mistake (C K: Sat, Apr 21, 2007, 4:02 pm) re: Major Mistake (Linda: Sun, Apr 22, 2007, 7:01 am) re: Major Mistake (Linda: Sun, Apr 22, 2007, 7:38 am) re: Major Mistake (Linda: Sun, Apr 22, 2007, 7:44 am) re: Major Mistake (Linda: Sun, Apr 22, 2007, 7:57 am) re: Major Mistake (C K: Sun, Apr 22, 2007, 8:17 am) re: Major Mistake (Ms. Eagle: Sun, Apr 22, 2007, 1:58 pm) re: Major Mistake (Ms. Eagle: Sun, Apr 22, 2007, 3:44 pm) re: Major Mistake (Linda: Sun, Apr 22, 2007, 4:18 pm) re: Major Mistake (Linda: Sun, Apr 22, 2007, 4:27 pm) re: Major Mistake (Ed: Sun, Apr 22, 2007, 7:00 pm) re: PS (Ed: Sun, Apr 22, 2007, 8:14 pm) re: FDISK (Ed: Sun, Apr 22, 2007, 8:36 pm) re: FDISK (Linda: Mon, Apr 23, 2007, 6:38 am) re: FDISK (Ed: Mon, Apr 23, 2007, 1:54 pm) re: FDISK (Ed: Tue, Apr 24, 2007, 12:30 pm) re: FDISK (Linda: Wed, Apr 25, 2007, 7:21 am) re: FDISK (Linda: Wed, Apr 25, 2007, 12:44 pm) re: FDISK (Linda: Wed, Apr 25, 2007, 1:42 pm) re: FDISK (Linda: Wed, Apr 25, 2007, 2:05 pm) re: FDISK (Linda: Wed, Apr 25, 2007, 2:22 pm) re: FDISK (Ed: Thu, Apr 26, 2007, 12:28 pm) re: FDISK (Ms. Eagle: Thu, Apr 26, 2007, 1:13 pm) re: FDISK (Ed: Thu, Apr 26, 2007, 1:36 pm) re: FDISK (Ms. Eagle: Thu, Apr 26, 2007, 2:13 pm) re: FDISK (Linda: Thu, Apr 26, 2007, 4:28 pm)
