For those that read my first thread and understood it completely. It should be obvious that I can clean out unwanted registry entrys if I want to. I would have hoped that I came across as one that...

I am trying to remove unwanted software supplied by HP. An example would be Movie Maker. (moviemkr.exe) There are several .dll's also in the folder. They regenerate also. Doesn't anyone here know how...

I hate it when my computer has a mind of it's own. I like to clean my HD of unwanted files. Unfortunately XP doesn't like that. I deleted a number of files and folders, count to ten and the computer...

I have programs that will only run in that environment.

Thanks for the input. I have been changing the registry using parts and pieces from my XP side to input into the 98 registry. I feel like I am very close to getting this thing to kick in. It appears...

I've done a little simple C++ programming but what I need now is way beyond my capability.

I have a PCI soft modem that is not working. See thread under Hardware "search on Dick."

I've...

After reading my post to you, I wasn't much help in getting your Lexmark back on line.

If you have not yet gotten the Lexmark to run, try removing all references to the Lexmark first using...

You didn't say what your new printer was. You should have done the uninstall using the uninstall under the Lexmark printer before you loaded the new printer. If you couldn't find that, you could go...

I've been writing threads in 2 spots in Daniweb, chatting with 2 different guys. It's a pain to check each place each time I come on so I'll be on Hardware only from now on. See my latest entry on...

I thought I had it guys. One of my called drivers was vcomm.vxd I looked everywhere for vcomm and it was no where on my HD. Reading up on vcomm, it does just what I needed it to do or so it...

I now have the Agere using com 3 but it didn't change a thing. I then inserted the PCI bus information into the registry but that didn't change anything either. Even though 98 now has info in the...

I now have Agere using com 3. Every thing acted the same. No connection to the modem. I put in the PCI bus information in the registry but that didn't change anything either. I'm running out of...

I'll look and get back later. Nothing on my box is using com 1 but the computer likes to reserve it for external com jobs. I can't force Agere to com 3 now. It gives me a message that it can't be...

Nothing is hooked to either com 1 or com 2. If my drivers were working right, the PCI soft modem should be somehow hooked to com 2 internally. I don't use com 1 for anything. When I first loaded the...

To HawkViper:

Sorry guy, I made myself look dumb with that one. My question was as clear as mud. I know how to get around in debug. My problem (which I should have made much clearer in my...

To ThongInspector:

There is a test that can be run in debug which shows what com ports are available. When running it in debug, my hex shows only com 1 & 2 exist. The fact that XP can use 3 is a...

If you have a resource marked EA000000-EA0000FF, how do you find this in debug? Does that also mean EA00:0000 or what? Also if an I/O is 9000-9007 how do you see the location in debug?

You pose some interesting questions. I do not get an OK after I send to the com port. I hadn't thought of that. I should get one.

The answer to your second question is covered by the third but to...

I have an Agere PCI modem in my HP AMD. I have XP, DOS, and 98 installed in 3 partitions on my HD. My modem works great in XP but won't work on 98. I downloaded the correct driver for my Agere (98...

The reason I wanted a dos partition is to run dos programs there. I never succeeded in getting to where I wanted to be and gave up. I could get dos on a third partition but my old dos on a floppy...

Thanks guys for the input. I got it this afternoon. I did it by deleting the partition I had made in 32, then making a new partition with just FAT.

I created a new partition on my HD running XP. I formatted it in FAT32.
I want to reformat it back to FAT or FAT16. When I use the disk manager
to format, it goes through the motions and I end up...

My drive D: on the HD which is Partition1, contains a complete factory back up of what is installed on drive C: which is Partition2.

D: also contains the "Recovery Console" which on normal use...

I have a 160 gig HD. I need a little space on it for some FAT & FAT32 stuff. My XP is on C: which is Partition2 and my Recovery Console is on D: Partition1 of the drive.

I tried to partition a...

I let TSG know what happened just in case. I am thrilled out of my mind. I was reading your stuff, found a program you recommended called "about buster", and ran it. Apparently my killing all...

I went looking for "HIghJackthis" because everyone was raving about it and I like to learn about computer stuff. I ended up on a forum called "Techsupportguy.com". I had downloaded HJT from a link...

Got one. Don't send any more!

Thanx

I fdisked to clean off a virus from my daughters computer. I brought it back up but her 98 didn't have her modem driver in it. We've looked everywhere to see where she got it from the last time we...

Yeah, Chainsaw, I think you've hit it. I looked for the reverse brace but maybe I better look harder. This item shows up in a lot of my .h library stuff. I will pull up one .h and carefully check. It...

I've scanned a lot of C++ sites but have not found an answer yet. In several pre written programs, I've noticed that a single brace "{" is used without being closed later in the program. It appears...
