Re: Running AOL - PC hangs - Event ID 3001



I ran into this error many times in many newsgroups. I am happy to say that
there is a fix for this issue. You take you CD that contains you Operating
System and after you insert it into the computer Reboot with it. When the
computer opens up choose the reformat option. Erase all the partitions . Oh
sorry I forgot the rest
