No programs shown in the Install/Uninstall list in Windows 98SE

- 700 views
Here's a problem that Glen Ventura (glee) and Alan Edwards (both MVP's) are familiar with but the usual solutions they (and Microsoft) have suggested in former posts just don't seem to work for me. Multiple problems with my computer occurred after I did a Norton Utility operation to clean up my slow-running computer. I've solved most of the problems but a few critical programs still will not run, or run properly including my Outlook 98 and the Control Panel utility for Add/Remove programs. How did I get this far??? Seems that the Microsoft solution for the Outlook 98 problem (Error Message: "An OLE registration error occurred. The program is not cor…

Dead machine, loose connection?
by Guest ms- 16 replies

History on this generic P550 machine: Appeared dead. A month later, setting it on a bench, it ran fine. Used it occasionally for 6 months, did have to bump the case a few times to get it going. Shut down normally the last time. A week later, dead. I bumped it again, nothing. Opened it up expecting to see an obvious loose connection, everything looks tight. The only symptom, when AC applied, the 3 lights (power, hard drive, ??) flash, then off. What does the symptom indicate, and to proceed from here? ms

Re: IE Crashes on this medical website?
by Guest Bill in Co.- 1 reply

Re: IE Crashes on this medical website? Ooops, and forgot to note that yours was using version 6.0.2800.1555 of mshtml.dll. So I guess there's no point in my looking further into other versions of Mshtml.dll, since evidently the problem is not simply due to that DLL file, but it ends up there. So there is apparently something else at work here. Interesting....

I am using Windows 98. About 1 month ago, I started receiving the following messages when I tried to print something: "Hpftbx15 This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down. Hpftbx15 caused a general protection fault." "Hpftbx15 An error has occurred in your program. To keep working anyway, click Ignore and save your work in a new file. To quit this program, click Close. You will lose information you entered since your last save." When I click either Ignore or Close, the printer prints my project without any problem. I went online to search for a solution and found a download to fix the Hpftbx15 problem. However…

Freeware and/or Paid Software Model
by Guest Dan- 9 replies
- 683 views
I wanted to get people's feedback on which model they prefer and why do they prefer the model. I prefer actually paying for software then using too much software that is supported by ads especially because of the problems with adware in this day and age. Please respond with comments to this post about if you prefer the pay for software model or the software model that is "free" and supported by ads as well as having the chance to mess with your computer. You can see my bias here but I would like feedback from everyone if they get a chance. Please try and use thoughtful comments and don't just rant and rave as I have been guilty of in the past in this n…

I remember that, when the Recycle Bin first came out, it was useless for restoring files deleted from a floppy disk. So I copied Windows Undelete from the old install of Win3.1 to Win95, and it worked fine. I still use it with Win98 floppy disks. I want to do the opposite of that. I want to copy the following features of WinME to a CD before I uninstall WinME, and restore these feature after I restore Win98SE.
