Re: scf /scannow & INFO in Event Viewer


Taking these issues only:

I have 4GB ram not 2GB

I have searched for each of the ehome missing files (hidden files shown) no
dice not there.

I reread the Update for Rollup2 and it looks like this is a hotfix not a
complete download. I am pretty sure I downloaded the Rollup2 some time ago
from MSupdate. I don't think any program has been deleted.

Ehome folders:

Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft
Same for each user
Documents and Settings\Karen\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft
C:\Windows
And this interesting entry:
IIS_qss_wss_changehome located in C:\i386\IIS6CAB



I have little data on this computer but will definitely move it before I do
anything. This is a 720XPS Dell and I have had way too many issues to start
loading it up.

Programs I generally use are Omnipage 16 (supposedly programmed for
multi-threads), DragonSpeaking (latest version), Office 2007--Outlook, Word,
Access, Excel, IE7. It is a working computer--not a play computer. It is up
to date including .net framework 3 which I think it was DragonSpeaking that
required it. I spend a lot of time at live streams on the web and on a
couple of forums.

Thanks a bunch and I know it might come to a time I want to go backward.
BUT NOT YET. I use AVG full package paid for internet security, virus, spam,
etc. And I use Diskeeper. There you have it.

Once again thanks a bunch.

ok, well at least
we know a 'tech'
was involved and
some issues have
resolved. and i
don't have a problem
with providing some
additional fyi towards
the issue at hand.

however, it will take a while
for me to review the
additional information
you just provided. but the
best course of action is to
resolve what seems to be
"known" issues.

----------------------

briefly the number 2 is equal to
2 megabytes and is the low
end of the range.

the 1152 i provided is just an
estimate for the high end of the
range.

the initial size of 2 is the floor
or base, if you will. however the
high end can fluctuate but never
be more than 1.5 times the physical
ram. it can be more than 1.5 but
regular windows will never ever
exceed this limit. however, the
limit can be lowered down to
a respectable size.

although i do not know firsthand
your configuration, it would
not be unfair to say that if
it is a regular computer with
regular software then the you
might regularly need 70 to 300
megs of virtual memory, even
though you have 2 gigs of
physical ram.

therefore if yours is
set to a range of 2000-4000,
instead of 70-300 you can
see that your pagefile is
overstated. so my suggestion
is to set your range 2-1152.

still, 1152 could be considered
too high. but it is not high enough
to be detrimental to performance.

---------------

in regards to ehome,
the add/remove listing
is not always accurate
because folders can simply
be deleted instead of using
the add/remove method.

so perhaps the lines you see
are orphaned entries.

you might simply explore
your system directory for
the ehome folder as it would
be a better way to assess
if you have the needed folder
and files.

also, i would search for
"one" of those dll's notated
on the event viewer and see
which folders that file resides.

though the error message seems
to be highly technical, it really
is telling you that a file (dll) cannot
be copied from one place into
another.

in otherwords, something (a)
cannot be processed from a location (b)
into another (c). the variables of the
formula that you have to validate
are: a, b and c.


--------------

something to keep in mind
is that sometimes it is easier
to actually revert back to
factory defaults. this is
especially true if errors
continue to pop up
after resolving some. it is
like a vicious cycle that
can only come to an end
by starting from scratch.

but you probably already
understand the above.
hopefully, the ehome
issue and perhaps the
pagefile are the culprits.

Thank you again for the fast reply. First, I know all about restore to
factory state. No way am I ready to do that. Tech help is always quick to
jump to that as a resolution rather then spend time to resolve problems.

Initially, my problems began with the video driver. Believe that is settled
now. During one of those sessions I had the tech uninstall the Business
portion of my Outlook program. I believe now he did it improperly as he
subsequently had to uninstall all the SQL stuff on my computer so I would
boot without errors. I then had a problem with streaming video wherein my
media player would replace the player on a particular web-page and not play
the stream. Ultimately, if I clicked on a page such as wvec.com and went to
interactive eagle cam the browser would blow out and close completely. Seems
to be fixed now.

Ever since I have had this computer I receive this error and have yet to
resolve what it is and it may simply be I shut down the computer with a disk
in the cd or dvd drive for all I know.

I have run chkdsk and the tech has run diagnostics and finds nothing wrong.

That is why I finally ran sfc on my own and discovered the ehome stuff.
Now, I have found the following article
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/912024/ but first want to tell you currently
I show the following via Add/Remove Programs:

Media Edition 2005; Update Rollup 2 for Media Edition 2005; along with
KB908246 & KB925766. None are listed as needing to be removed in this white
paper however there was a KB referred to that needed to be removed prior to
upgrade to Media Player 11 that I discovered after I had done the update. I
received that update via MS-updates by clicking on update on my Media Player
10 and presumed it to be correct. I only note this as it could be an issue
regarding the above.

I am not quite sure what the download listed in the white paper as 912024
dated Jan 24, 2006 actually is because it shows you get the update rollup2
via automatic MS-updates screen and generally these files are not available
any other way. If it is the entire roll-up can I simply install it over the
old one or do I need to uninstall rollup2 and then what?

I will be taking your advice on the paging file and will try it. I have one
question on your comments. What do you mean 2? You gave me 1152 and I asked
you what the maximum would be since it appears I have to complete that area.

so if you are in the mood and have
the time to bring your vm back down
to earth, then try resizing your
pagefile to a low end of 2, windows
will then give you a real number
of the vm you are actually using.

Very glad for your help. Hope I have given you enough and not too much
information.

I also have another problem that appeared that caused me to download the
HiveCleanUp file which I got by following the link in the error.
