Question I'm having small but REALLY annoying problems...
Reply
Posted 2002-10-24, 02:26 AM
Ok, i hate to admit, i own a Compaq. I'm having quite a few problems because of that...

The comp is a Pentium II 800 with 128MB of ram... :-(

First, i think i have a memory leak or something. After a fresh boot, my resources are at 87%. After about a half an hour of using the comp, they drop dangerously low (about 35-50%) and will not get any higher. Any idea why?

Next, everytime i try to open a folder, the whole screen goes blank and i have to restart...

Then when i get the restore desktop, explore crashes, even though it reloads fine...

Last, I own a Compaq.

Now i'm obviously not great with comps, but i sorta know enough to get by... can someone help?

I'm using Windows ME (Argh) I've run the basics on it: Scandisk, virus checks, trojan scans... oh well. I just did "scanreg /restore" to a registry from a week ago, and now it's fine. Now all i have to do is track down what happened within the last week and figure out whats causing this. any ideas?

Actually, it's more like windows me = SHIT
I'd choose 95 over ME if those were my only choices.
