Hi all,
First time post for me, so thanks in advance for any help i get here.
Normally I search the net looking for fixes for my problems but this one has me beaten, so far I have found a few suggested solutions but none have worked. One suggested editing the registry but my registry entried were not the same. I found and deleted all the owner files that I could.
I am running 98SE on an IBM thinkpad 600x.
Now my problem. When I open word I get a message saying "word could not open" with a square. Also I cannot open any doc's I get the message "doc is locked for editing by another user". If I then try to close word I get the message "the file normal already exists, do you want to replace it".
I tried to load norton as I read that old versions could cause similar faults but got the message that the temp folder is unaccessible or full.
Also when I open my computer it can not open my C drive unless I right click it and select explore.
TIA
Alan
