Clint,
Where does Memtest save its log?
Do any of you have experience with MemTest86?
As was suggested, I've downloaded MemTest86 and ran a test.
The test begins and after about 5 seconds my computer reboots. Does MemTest work that...
Rusty - I only got the BHDRVx86 error once.
Most every error is win32k.sys and/or ntoskrnl.exe
Chuck - the error also occurred when I had MacAfee.

I'm still getting BSOD, even with the new Nvidia driver I mentioned in my last post.
I've downloaded MemTest86 as Byron suggested and ran a test. Either it works at lightening speed or I don't...
Rusty - thanks. My fingers misspoke. The file is BHDRVx86.
To answer other questions, my ISP provides antivirus software. It was McAfee but has changed to Norton. I am running Norton now and have...
I have a Dell 630i XPS running XP Pro SR2. I get a BSOD erratically. Sometimes 1X/day for several days, sometimes 2,3, or 4X in one day, sometimes not at all for days or weeks. I can always tell when...
Leif,
I've been playing around with the two IE extensions. I've used the IE View in the past but never the IE Tab - which is pretty neat! And much more useful, I think, than IE View. Sadly, using...
Hans,
Brilliant!
Yes, that solves the issue quite nicely. So, it looks as if I will have to reset my default browser whenever I use FrontPage. And when I'm done, set it back to Firefox.

Lief,
Sorry for the delay; I was on holiday.
No, I cannot paste anything into the address field. It will allow me to hand-enter a URL, though.
Below is the error message I get when I try to...
Leif,
I can open the other website in my browser [either IE 6 or Firefox 2].
FP has never allowed me to cut and paste anything into the hypertext box when I want to add a link.
I have recently begun to get this error message "An error occurred while browsing files" on all my websites when I want to make a hyperlink to a different website.
The procedure is, Insert...
Is anyone familiar with the attached "Connect to" network dialog box?
It pops up whenever I try to connect to any of the computers on my network.
I don't recall doing anything to make this come up....
Joe,
A stand-alone PC.

When I attempt to copy from one document to another [using WordPerfect Office 11] or between any applications, 50% of the time nothing is copied. This means I have to go back to the original document...
No. No ZA. I use McAfee anti virus.
When attempting to make changes to my startup menu using msconfig, after clicking OK or Apply, I get the following error message:
"An access denied error was returned while attempting to change a...
Ah! Excellent.
Thanks for the help.
Peter
Big Al,
Thanks for the ideas.
I looked at the BartPE link at Wikipedia. Interesting. I've never used that software. I looked through my program files folder and could find nothing like it. I went...
I originally posted this in another forum and feedback there lead me to repost it here. Even so, I'm not sure if this is the proper place to post this.
In the past four weeks [I double-checked...
I'm not sure if this is the proper place to post this but I've been using Word a lot lately [don't normally use it at all] and I've become aware of a lot of little files in all my folders that are...
John,
Thanks for a VERY helpful post. Using DBAN I was able to erase the drive [FYI everybody - 30 gig drive needed 25 hours] and sell it on CraigsList for $15 - which was a good price since I had...
I replaced a 30 gig notebook HDD on my Dell 5150 inspiron with a 120 gig HDD and I am a happy camper.
But what to do with the smaller HDD? It is functional and with the OS [Win XP SP2 and Dell...
I have a Plextor 708A DVD/CD burner that has given me years and hundreds [a thousand?] of disks worth of recording and play-back pleasure. But at one time, when the unit was new, it would burn CDs at...
I'm inclined to agree with the last post by WyllyWylly. I've run Adaware and MS spyware along with all the others that were suggested and nothing comes up. Funny though - when I started up Spyguard,...
