Just a thought, have you checked to see if  the fan is working on the
processor? AMD's as everyone knows will overheat easily. I had the same type
of problem with a K6-2, erroneous errors that could not be explained, unable
to reinstall the OS. hen something told me to take the cover of the
computer - first thing I saw was the fan was dead as a door nail. Replaced
it and everything was fine.

Hope this helps........Fran

Hello all,
Here is my scenario. A friend of mine is running WinME on an AMD (K6) and
128mb RAM with 10gb HD. I offered to take a look at his computer for him
after he couldn't connect to the internet and was getting as many as 10
error messages pop up at startup. After doing some diagnostics and fixing
some errors, I decided to try and reinstall the operating system. The
problem is , the installation goes upto something like 10% (copying files to
drive) and it stops with an error "cannot copy files to disk. click enter to
exit setup". I have ran scan disk, suface scan, and Norton Disk utilities
but they all come up with no disk errors. Some of the error messages have
been dealt with but here are the ones that are still coming up.

1. Unhandeled Exception C0000005 at address 100016b8

2. Cmesys unknows error

3. Mobile Device properties:
    The TCP/IP Network transport is not installed

4. Pgmonitor:
    Error in P65DK.DLL

Can anyone have any idea what could be wrong? I know it is combination of
things making the errors but any assistance will be great .

Thanks
Mel Mofya
