I have ME and I keep getting help center errors

[thegreatone]

If I leave my computer when i return I get loads of help center errors. I just click ok til they are all gone. It all started when i had to reinstall ME on my computer. I tryed to install 2000pro but it wouldn't finsh the install so i needed to reinstall me and now my computer is crap.

Hmmm,

maybe you could try this:

Click Start, click Programs, click Accessories, and then click MS-DOS Prompt.

Type the following (where "C:\Windows" is your Windows installation folder) and press ENTER after each line:

CD C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM
COPY REGSVR32.EXE WBEM
CD WBEM
FOR %%f IN (*.DLL) DO REGSVR32 /S %%f
WINMGMT /REGSERVER
EXIT

That's straight from Microsoft, so hopefully it helps. This is supposed to prevent you from getting "initialization" errors with Help Center, relating to errors made during installation of Windows ME.

Hope it helps

Was this recommendation from MS in an article somewhere? If so do you have the link. Sure would like to read it.
