A lot of people get missing or corrupt dll error messages? These are usually very easy to fix. All you need to do is download a new version of the offending dll file:

DLL-World.com is a great place: http://www.dll-world.com

How to install a new DLL:

Open the zip-file you just downloaded.

Extract the .dll file to any location on your computer. Your best bet is to unzip the file to the directory of theprogram that is requesting the file. If that doesn’t work, you should extract the file to your system directory.

This is C:\Windows\System (Windows 95/98/Me), C:\WINNT\System32 (Windows NT/2000), or C:\Windows\System32 (Windows XP).

Make a backup copy of the original file dll file and replace it with the new dll.

Reboot your computer

If the problem does not go away, try the following:

1. Press Start and select Run

2. Type CMD and press Enter

3. Type regsvr32 “filename”.dll and hit enter

A code 39 is usually a driver error that prevents your CD or DVD-ROM drive from being displayed. It alerts you that a communication error has occurred and the ROM drivers are either corrupt or missing. A code 39 error can be caused by a number of reasons including the presence of malicious files, or registry problems. Regardless, a few simple troubleshooting steps and guidelines can solve this error and allow you to use your ROM drive.

Right-click the drive once you have identified it and click “Update Driver.” Follow the guided prompts to update the drive and restart your computer when the process is complete. If that does not solve the problem, move to the next section.
Using the Registry
Step
1

Click the Windows “Start” button and click “Run.”
Step
2

Type “regedit” (Without quotes) and press “Enter” to open the registry console.
Step
3

Click the “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE” folder on the left panel and click “SYSTEM.” Click “CurrentControlSet” and click “Control.” Click “Class and click the “{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}” key. Delete the following entries if they exist under this key: LowerFilters, LowerFilters.bak, UpperFilters, UpperFilters.bak.
Step
4

Click “File” and click “Exit” to close the registry console. Restart your computer.
Step
5

Double-click “My Computer” on the desktop after your computer has restarted and verify that your CD or DVD-ROM drive is visible. You should also check the Device Manager again to see if the exclamation mark has been removed from your CD or DVD-ROM drive.

I understand that many computer users find it a trouble to manually type error messages and paste it in forums to get help. For short error message, It’s not too bad. But there are some really long error messages with random error code numbers, location, file names UGH! I’d go mad if I had to type the error messages below.

Why don’t Windows error messages has a button for you to copy all the error messages? Why can’t I simply use my mouse to highlight the error messages in command prompt? Actually there are ways to let you copy the text in windows error message and also in command prompt.

Actually there is! You can easily copy Windows error messages by using the copy shortcut key CTRL+C. Don’t believe? Go to Start > Run, simply type anything at the run box and hit enter. You’ll get an error message that says “Windows cannot find ‘xxxxxxxx’. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search.” Now press CTRL+C simultaneously. Then open up a notepad or any text editor and hit CTRL+V. You should see this being pasted at your text editor.

—————————
xxxxxxx
—————————
Windows cannot find ‘xxxxxxx’. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search.
—————————
OK
—————————

Unfortunately this method doesn’t copy ALL error messages. Only windows error messages.

As for how to copy and paste in command prompt or DOS window, there are 2 ways to do it.
1. Right click at anywhere at the command prompt, and select Mark.

You can now use your mouse left click to mark the area that you want to copy. Once you have selected the text you want to copy, then use the right mouse button or the Enter key to copy the selected text to the clipboard. To paste, right click and select Paste.

2. Right click at command prompt titlebar and select Properties.

At options tab, check or enable QuickEdit Mode.

Click OK. You can now easily mark the text that you want in command prompt and then to copy the text, right click your mouse OR hit the enter key. To paste, right click your mouse.

Now you know how to copy error messages from windows and command prompt. Please make sure you include the exact error messages that you get from your computer in forum when posting a problem. It enables us to understand better what is the problem with your computer.

Another big tip along the prevention lines is to keep your Windows operating system up-to-date. If you are running Windows 98, 2000, Me, XP, or Vista, then you need to turn on the automatic updates and allow the latest fixes and patches from Microsoft to load onto your home computer. Microsoft is very pro active in updating their software to help prevent attacks from viruses, spyware, and malware. Whenever vulnerabilities are discovered in their software, they quickly release patches and updates to repair the issues. However, it is up to you to get the patches and updates installed on your computer to protect it.

To activate automatic updates go into the Control Panel from your Start Menu and double-click the icon for Automatic Updates. Select the “automatic (recommended)” setting and press “ok” to save. When the next updates are available, you will notice a windows update icon in the lower right corner. Click on the icon to start installing the updates.

Some skeptics argue that you should avoid Microsoft Updates because they could be buggy and harmful to your personal computer. My opinion is that since Microsoft is such a large company and they employee top-notch workers, even if they would make a mistake with one of their updates, they are quick to respond and remedy the situation. The pros far out-weigh the cons concerning keeping up-to-date with Microsoft Windows Updates. The security patches alone are worth the effort for they will provide an extra layer of defense against viruses and spyware.

Introduction

Ever wondered which program has a particular file or directory open? Now you can find out. Process Explorer shows you information about which handles and DLLs processes have opened or loaded.

The Process Explorer display consists of two sub-windows. The top window always shows a list of the currently active processes, including the names of their owning accounts, whereas the information displayed in the bottom window depends on the mode that Process Explorer is in: if it is in handle mode you’ll see the handles that the process selected in the top window has opened; if Process Explorer is in DLL mode you’ll see the DLLs and memory-mapped files that the process has loaded. Process Explorer also has a powerful search capability that will quickly show you which processes have particular handles opened or DLLs loaded.

The unique capabilities of Process Explorer make it useful for tracking down DLL-version problems or handle leaks, and provide insight into the way Windows and applications work.

When I start up my HP Compaq Presario V2000, I receive a message saying “We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware of software change might have caused this.” At this point I’m offered the Safe Mode start up, Safe Mode with Networking, w/ Command Prompt, Last Known Good Configuration and Start Windows Normally options. Any of those choices brings up the Windows XP Start-up window for two seconds and then another window comes up with the following information…
A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
If this is the first time you’ve seen this Stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:
Disable of uninstall any anti-virus, disk defragmentation or backup utilities. Check your hard drive configuration, and check for any updated drivers. Run CHKDSK/F to check for hard drive corruption and then restart your computer.
Technical information:
*** STOP: 0×00000024 (0×00190203,0×82BD3110,0xc0000102,0×00000000)

I’ve hit F10 when first starting the Laptop and gotten the PhoenixBIOS Setup Utility and gone to Tools and done the Hard Drive Self Test with the following results: (S.M.A.R.T.) 100% complete
(Quick) Pass (Comprehensive) Pass (S.M.A.R.T.) Pass

Moved over to EXIT… Exit Save Changes - Hit Enter - got a window “Setup Confirmation” to Save configuration changes and exit now ? clicked on YES, only to be brought back to the “We Apologize…” window, sit on that for 30 seconds, opens to Windows XP Startup window and two seconds later I’m back to the window that says ” A problem has been detected…”

If I hit F12 when I first power up the laptop a message flashes on the screen, an ID and copywriter for Intel, below that if says For RealTek followed by a series of numbers and letters. Under that is two lines…
PXE-E61 : Media Test Failure, Check Cable
PXE-MOF : Exiting PXE ROM
then,
Operating System Not Found - flashes before going to the “We apologize…” window.

1) I’m pulling my hair out, I can’t seem to get anywhere with this, nothing I do gets me out of this circle
2) I’ve tried the Start Up CD that came with the computer to make it work… I’ve tried downloading off the Internet, Registry Fix, Reg Cure and even another “updated” version of the laptops start up CD, all to no avail…
3) Can you tell me what the “0x…” error numbers mean ?
4) Can you give me an idea how I can get this fixed, without being taken to the proverbial PC Cleaners ? - preferably something I can do myself, or
5) Do I just take it out back and shoot it ?

I REALLY hope you can Help !!! My wife has become quite attached to this thing.

ANSWER:

Your Problems are due to the BIOS trying to boot from the network card. Restarted your computer and get into the bios. Once in the bios set up default settings in the bios and save it.

Q:

What do you do if you get an error message that says ‘The instruction at 0×00000000 referenced memory at 0×00000000 The memory could not be read?

A:

• Sounds like one of the application’s DLL files has a bad or missing registry link.

• Download a registry link repair tool. This is the easiest and safest fix.

• Here is the offical word from Microsoft, not sure if you are accessing the apps it mentions in the KB solution, but it hits your error message right on the mark. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;26861

For many people there is nothing more frustrating than getting errors in their Outlook/Outlook Express. I have talked to people who have taken an hour to do a simple 2 minute email just because they kept receiving Outlook errors.

Generally Outlook errors are fairly simple things to fix so I will begin over the next few weeks to write some posts that will assist you if you are having trouble with Outlook errors. Today I will talk about a simple fix you can do if you ever receive a time-out error message.

Sometimes when you receive an error message in Outlook (something like 0×80040900) you may also receive a message beside it that says time-out error message. You may be able to totally fix this problem by increasing the server time-out setting, just follow these points below to resolve this problem;

Outlook 2000 (CW)
Go to the Tools menu, click Services
In the Services tab, select Internet E-mail
Click Properties
Click the Advanced tab
Gradually increase the server time-out setting until the problem is resolved

Outlook 2000 (IMO)
Go to the Tools menu, click Accounts
Select the target account
Click Properties
Click the Advanced tab
Gradually keep increasing the server time-out setting until the problem is resolved

Outlook 2002 and Outlook 2003
Go to the Tools menu, click E-mail Accounts
Click View or change existing e-mail accounts
Click Next
Click your POP3 account
Click Change
Click More Settings
Click the Advanced tab
Gradually increase the server time-out setting until the issue is resolved.

Outlook 2007
Go to the Tools menu, click Account Settings
Click to select the target POP3 account
Click Change
Click More Settings
Click the Advanced tab
You must now gradually increase the server time-out setting until the issue is fixed

Outlook Express 5.x and 6.0
Go to the Tools menu, click Accounts
Click the Mail tab
Click your POP3 account
Click Properties
Click the Advanced tab
You must now gradually increase the server time-out setting until the problem is fixed

That is actually no solution, but a Workaround for the 80072EFD problem: Instead of this Windows Vista update of the operating system , there’s also the possibility for the Windows Vista update via IE7.

Thus simply start Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) , in the menu EXTRAS (Specials) click the menu option WINDOWS UPDATE . So - now the update should actually work (through all Firewalls etc.).

Unfortunately this is no automated solution, but you can start this manual workaround simply from time to time. I think that is justifiable for your “Security”….
