Hello again.
1. In the Event Viewer, There are a "LOT" of ERROR messages. The first one
is dtd 9/18/'06 and is 'Service Control Manager/ID 70232/"The Remote access
connection manager service terminated with the following error: Access is
denied. The next error is 'RASMAN/ID 200035/Remote access aonnection manager
failed to start because it could not create buffers. Restart computer.
Access is denied.' These two error messages alternate repeatedly from 9/18
and are the only two error messages.
2. In Services.Msc, WinInstaller is installed but is stopped and set to
manual. I started it and set it to Automatic. Should I have done that?
Also under the Recovery tab "Take no action" is in all event boxes, should
that be changed.
Finally, a lot of programs are listed as "Stopped/Manual". Is that normal?
Again, thanks for the time you're taking.

Also check if Windows Installer service is running in SERVICES.MSC when

Hi NewScience, thanks for the reply. In Win2k, when the system is not
shut
down properly, it goes through a disk check before windows starts up. I
suppose I incorrectly used the word 'repair'. I can enter Add/Remove
programs in SafeMode, but when I click change/remove, a popup comes up,
"Preparing to uninstall". This hangs for about 1 minute then is replaced
with another popup "Cannot initiate installer...." or words to that
effect.
I've deleted Installer 3.1v2 while in safe mode and reinstalled it with
the
same results. Can you refresh my memory on how to access this particular
Event Log?

What do you mean through the "Repair Disk" sequence. Do you mean it does
and automatic chkdsk?
Anything in the Event Viewer log?
What happens when you try to uninstall Java in Safe Mode? Can you run
Add/Remove in Safe Mode?

When I click on "Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs", the pc shuts down
and
reboots through the "Repair Disk" sequence. Needless to say, I cannot
access
Add/Remove programs. I've worked on this for a week with no success.
Windows 2000, Service Pack 4. One thing that mistakenly done is to
download
Java Updates 3.0, 5.0, and 8.0 and cannot uninstall them in SafeMode.
Anyone
with any ideas about what I've screwed up would be appreciated.
