Guest Zipadeedoodaa Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 Apologies for cross posting I do hope I'm in the right group. On start up I get a dialogue box headed Windows No Disk and in the body of the box it states : Exception Processing Message c0000013 Parameters 75b6bf9c 4 75b6bf9c 75b6bf9c This happens at about the same time as AVG 7.5 free edition launches to do an automatic update on start up. Could I ask if anyone has any idea as to what this problem is, and hopefully ,how I can correct it. Many thanks indeed. Neville

You multiposted which is not A Good Thing. Here is a link explaining the difference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossposting You have answers in the other newsgroup to which you posted. If you have forgotten where you posted or can't find your post, use Google Groups Advanced Search and search for your name.

Please do not send the same message separately to more than one newsgroup (called multiposting). Doing so just fragments the thread, so someone who answers in one newsgroup doesn't get to see answers from others in another newsgroup. And for those who read all the newsgroups the message is multiposted to, they see the message multiple times instead of once (they would see it only once if you correctly crossposted instead). This wastes everyone's time, and gets you poorer help than you should get. If you must send the same message to more than one newsgroup, please do so by crossposting (but only to a *few* related newsgroups).

I think it's the first time I've ever "multi-posted" and I wasn't aware of the difference. Your explanation is much more acceptable to me than the previous one which felt like an admonishment without knowing the facts. I genuinely thought my original post was in the wrong group and there had been no answers when I posted elsewhere. Thank you for your help. Neville

You're welcome, from an almost 70-year-old very experienced poster. Glad to help. > I think it's the first time I've ever "multi-posted" and I wasn't aware of > the difference. Your explanation is much more acceptable to me than the > previous one which felt like an admonishment without knowing the facts. There's an occasional exception, but very few people here want to admonish anyone, for this or anything else. But sometimes we will post things matter-of-factly, and not take the extra time to convey politeness. That doesn't mean the poster is trying to be rude or to admonish. I try to be as polite as possible, but I know there are times when my tone has been misunderstood, and I've inadvertently offended someone. > I > genuinely thought my original post was in the wrong group and there had been > no answers when I posted elsewhere. That of course is the situation where you hadn't planned in advance to multi-post. Of course if that happens and you want to post again to a different group, you have no choice but to multi-post. But it's probably a good idea to begin your post with something like "Forgive me for multiposting. I posted this in xxxxxxxx yesterday, and got no answers, so I thought I would try again here, which might be a better group for my question." -- Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP Windows - Shell/User Please Reply to the Newsgroup
