Re: Windows Media Player 7.1 no sound

Re: Windows Media Player 7.1 no sound My Player Updated itself yesterday morning and I was having the same problems as I've seen all over. Some files would play some wouldn't. Videos would play but no audio. Some people are saying to install Codecs, which may work for the techy types. I downloaded DFX (Found the link on Microsoft's web site under plugins) and IT WORKED!!!!!!!!!!!!! Microsofts page: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/plugins.aspx DFX page it links too http://www.fxsound.com/dfx/index.php Hopefully I save some other people some time trying to figure this out and / or having to figure out what a friggin Codec is to s…

M-I'5.Persecut ion ` harass ment at w ork

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -= harassment. at work -= -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Once I stopped watching television. and listening to the radio at the end of 1990, "they" had to find other ways of committing abuses. So. they took what must be for them a tried and tested route; they get at you by. subversion of those around you. Since they wouldn't be able. to do that with my family or friends, that meant getting at people in. the workplace to be their mouthpieces and do their dirty work. for them. They. supplied my employers in Oxford with details from what was going on in my private. life, and what I and other people had said at my home and accommodation. in Ox…

Excessive and inappropriate cookies being injected
by Guest Robert A. Macy- 0 replies

What's happening here? How do I stop this from happening? MS Explorer on Win 98 system collects cookies like crazy even with MV Host file installed.. Ok. As a test I cleared out all temp and cookies, to BLANK. Cleared out Recycle Bin. Rebooted. Went to a SINGLE website to view a a tour for a home. And VOILA! Thousands [well it seemed like thousands] of cookies with inappropriate URL addresses insinuated themselves right back again. These are cookies not even associated with the tour. How is that possible? As part of this experiment, I didn't go to any of the old URL's but somehow their cookies pop right back the minute I got back on line. Is ther…

USB Card Reader causes total Freezeup
by Guest not_you@my.dotcom- 0 replies
- 226 views
I have Win98se. I have a card reader for my SD camera cards. I have used this card for months with no problem. Yesterday I plugged the card into my USB port and the computer froze up. I got a blue screen with a lengthy message with lots of technical jargon that I did not understand. It told me to press Y (yes) to continue running Windows, or N (no) to exit. After several tries, and regardless if I pressed the Y or the N, left the card reader in the computer, or unplugged it, my computer just froze up. Nothing worked, I could not do a CTRL ALT DEL, or anything else, except shut off the power. That error message told me to run SETUP.EXE for windows. I ran …

How to change Windows Greeting?
by Guest Robert A. Macy- 0 replies
- 217 views
How do I change the Windows greeting? Win 98SE I inherited from a fellow employee an IBM ThinkPad [laptop], which he kindly converted for my use. The only residual left was a greeting with his name on it asking for a password that only required I hit CANCEL to boot up Windows and fully use the laptop. He is no longer with the firm, all the licenses for all the software are legitmate. I've used this unit for a while with a lot of my own installations added to the existing structures, and I'm reluctant to reinstall from scratch. So how do I change the greeting to use my name, or bypass the request? Robert -- Posted via http://computerhelpforums.…

Re-Install Win98SE ?
by Guest Rudy- 0 replies
- 235 views
I was given a Yr 2000 HP desktop PIII 866 w/ 384 Mb ram, running Win98SE. It has more capability than my older 1998 HP. I'm having two problems which I can't resolve. I'm connected to the Internet via ethernet cable> DLink SuperG router>cable modem. The older machine (Celeron500 256Mb) was connected to the net via a USB connection as the installer couldnt get (he tried) a 10/100 hard card to function (Port conflicts he said). Given that, the connection was reasonably fast but the machine did have 'falling offline" problems, especially if left alone/inactive for a while. During D/L though (say 25 parts x 309 Mb .WMV files) it was fast and smooth..1…

DKabppls.exe

This file in Windows/system (312KB) opens on startup (Win98 6.0). Strangely, I can't find any mention of it on GOOGLE or Microsoft Help. Is it a 'legit' program ? Do I need it ? Do I need it to run on startup ? The reason I'm asking is there are 2 'windows' that hang up this computer on shutdown and I get the warning window: "..stopped responding...WAIT ? END TASK?" but both have NO NAME at the top so I don't know what they are, where, or why they're running and often WAIT or END TASK won't get it done. Neither will CTL ALT DEL X2.. Then I have to power down to shut down which is not a good thing.. I ve pulled the list of Running Programs from …

system freeze as Youtube web page loads
by Guest legg- 0 replies
- 226 views
Over the last three days, I've tried to access two separate youtube links on two separate occasions to find the W98 system freezes as the page is initially displayed. No keybd/mouse response. Required a hardware reboot to recover. I don't normally access youtube, but had done so in the previous week without problems. First link was: The first time the problem occurred, I did a quick disk check - lost clusters found (and repaired). I retried the same link with number crunching background activity disabled - with the same result. Repeated disk check and then attempted to run defrag - incomplete after hitting a bad sector. This was repaired by running a…

Antivirus Software
by Guest BAP- 0 replies

I have heard about some free versions of software packages that one can download and use to check W98ME systems for viruses, but I do not know if any of them could be launched at the Dos Prompt. There may be times when a System may fail to boot successfully and the only way to get anywhere is by using a Start-up Diskette. Is there some way to check for viruses at the C: Prompt?
