Outlook Express is a windows based email client and gets shipped with any windows os. It has nothing to do with your ISP.

What I THINK may be the problem here, is that you signed up for an email...

Hey Matt, youre welcome, and if you think this question was resolved for now, you may mark this post as such. Good luck with your HJT on the other forum.

OK, I think those are your WLAN? Are you getting no joy on the "Network" section at the dell drivers page?

OK, there are a couple of things you can try. First of all, you need to make sure that all the nasties are removed from your system. To do that, you need to download and update HJT as prescribed...

Hi, and welcome!

Can you boot up in safe mode? I presume the usb wireless adaptor you talking about is your router/modum?

Let us know firstly if you can boot in safemode.

AHRGGG Damm, I thought that much!! (the register and pay-up part)

At least you know now what to look/search for???

Edit: Is dell not giving a driver cd/dvd out with installation? Why I ask, is...

I'm always glad if I can be of some help. I get a lot of help in this community myself. Please keep us updated.

I am not sure if this can help, but it may be worth a try:

OK, for those network controller and pci modum, try my suggestion in post no 5.

ps, remember to reboot after installing.

Under the "Network" section, are all the WLAN drivers, you should find one there applicable to your PCI.

wow, you are updating very fast, he he.... good stuff!! I am trying to look what will help for your wlan

ok, did not see your updated post when I replied. Looking at your yellow question mark list, it seems that you need:

Hi Cohen

You said you downloaded the two drivers, but with "no luck". Can you elaborate a bit more? Could you not install or did it not work after installation?

Also, for some drivers to work,...

I would also like to see the thread about customer responses going somewhere, so caperjack, thats now 2 of us wanting you to start it somewhere. Is this thread now hijacked?

Hi gerbil, my FF could render that loooong post and replies to it perfectly. Also latest version in my native language. I must admit, that there were previous cases when FF did leave a blank area...

There are many reasons for this.

This can have something to do with where daniweb server is hosted, and where we are in the world in relation to where the server is. Sometimes, it may happen that...

I guess you should try a repair install, at least that should save your existing documents, but before you do that, did you try a restore to prev date that is before you installed flash? and or a sfc...

Then see in device manager if there are any yellow exclamation marks, and update or install those drivers.

It seems that you are having the same problem I had yesterday, that is if you get this error message:

The spesific error code is 0x000006ba [The RPC server is unavailable]

See my thread of...

Go to control panel > sounds and audio, and then sounds tab, make sure you select a sound scheme from the drop down list.

By the way, I just remembered that you are using Firefox to browse, and that may be the main reason why you "could not connect" to the microsoft server. Only IE can do updates on that server.

You...

The "could not connect to server" on the windows site may be because of active x not functioning on your pc, and or a firewall blocking it.

I'm no vista expert, I do not own any vista software,...

I understood the poster already tried sfc /scannow but the command prompt disappeared without any message?

It seems that your explorer.exe file is either missing or corrupt. When you boot into safe mode, is your desktop also gone?

In safemode, can you find explorer.exe in your windows folder?

When...

Did you restore to a date before your vista theme installations?

Can you tell us what error occurred?

See if you can do system restore in safe mode.

This may help:

When you re-boot hit F8.
Choose the Safe Mode with Command Prompt Option.
After you log in you should see the command prompt...

When you use the xp home installation cd to boot from, you will be asked to install xp on an existing partition. Don't use that option, but follow the route to delete all partitions, and then...

It seems that Microsoft does not support this anymore. But I found some sort of hope here.

I myself am not sure how all of that work, as I never used 2000...

Remember, when you do a re-install, you will loose all existing data on the computer. You want to back up first important stuff you do not want to loose.

See this handy how to:

As far as I know, windows 2000 does not have a system restore. Do you mean that you want to do a clean re- install of windows 2000?

Did you troubleshoot the other issues on the link provided?

My guess wil be that a driver -- such as a PCI bus driver, disk driver, or IDE controller driver -- is missing from the image.

This stop error is caused by any or all of the following:

1. if your computer is infected with a boot-sector virus.

2. A device driver issue

3. A hardware issue

4. boot volume is corrupted

Glad to hear things are working fine again. Just as an added precaution, never have more than one AV Program on your machine at one time. They may have conflict to each other. Choose the best one of...

Does it take 40 minutes after your webbrowser is opened to load content from a webpage, or does your browser takes 40 minutes to open before you can start surfing?

You may also try to power off your pc, and then disconnect the backup battery from the mobo, disconnect and reconnect HD, wait a couple of minutes, and then reconnect, power up and reboot.

Did you try to do a format of the drive on the second machine perhaps?

OK, so there is progress. You should remember you have about 5 seconds to do the "press any key from cd...." if missed, it will boot from your drive.

Well, to answer your last question. Yes, you can take out your hard drive and slave it to another computer to get hold of your data. If done correctly, it should show up on the other computer's...
