mark, When you guys brainstorm and get fixes to all these problems you address do you keep them anywhere (maybe a web site) so they are easily accessed for future use? -pat

My experience with the registry restore has been after a hard crash and it was not exactly an option.<G> I do think the registry checker would have been a good test to run. Patricia needs to restore the bad registry and run the registry checker and see what is discovered.<GGG> I have a email on using the registry restore. "Restoring a Win98 Registry Save Every time you start your Win98 PC, the Registry Checker automatically creates a backup of the Registry. It stores the five most recent backup copies in the \Windows\Sysbckup folder -- they are stored as RB001.CAB, RB002.CAB, and so on. If you want to manually back up the Registry before installing software that may effect the registry, you should run the System Info utility (Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools), then go to the Tools menu and select Registry Checker. After a quick scan, Registry Checker will offer to make a backup. Click Yes to make it overwrite the oldest backup file with an updated one. To restore a Registry backup, boot your computer to a C:> prompt and run ScanReg. Follow the instructions to view your backed-up Registry files and restore the most recent one." *********************************
