08:40 here in the UK, and unless the NG has gone read-only, it's still
working - MS must be switching off during Redmond Business hours :)

The question now is: fix it or leave it, I suppose?
Oh yeah, and what does 'HCL' and 'H' stand for?
Didn't have too much time for searching, but aren't Dave Lee and Travis
Bickle two different characters?
Hopefully you find it in your heart to excuse my ignorance.

  Problem in opening files with extension ".ini"         


Author: lokee
Date: Sep 18, 2008 16:37

Hello,

I am unable to open any file with extension".ini"
If I create any text file, type some text and save it with extension ".ini"
and try to open it using notepad (or by double clicking), it gives following
messege:

"The file name, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect"

But same file opens properly if I try to open using "Wordpad".

What is wrong ? Is there any problem with Notepad setting ?

I use windows XP professional, version2002, Service pack 2.

Please reply.

Thanks in advance.

I haven't stuck my head in here much in a LONG time. (Probably a bit over a
year ago.)

So, well, I figured I'd stick my head in and say hi. I don't even have an ME
image in a VM to play with, I suppose I could set one up but I'm lazy.

I'll take this moment in time to remind everyone that Friday is
International Talk Like A Pirate Day.

Anywho... Remember, an appropriately threatened PC is scared and will have
fewer errors meaning you have to kick it less often.

  Re: cdrw drive not active in Windows ME system P-4 1300 w rambus 768 mb memory

Hi Mike:

Able to boot to DOS. Chose option with CD support and a drive letter was
assigned to my CD drive. Using the DOS command C:\WINDOWS DIR was able to
get a listing of content of that folder. Similarly able to get a list of
content of A:\DIR - a breakdown of files on floppy boot disc. But - could
not get any info from E:\DIR. Only an error message. Previously recorded
info was on a CDRW in that drive and I also tried a cd disc with previously
recorded data - also got error notice.
Does this mean more likely problem is with the drive as opposed to Operating
System?

thanks again.
Barry

Thanks in advance!
