Boot problem

[KB]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsme.general (More info?)

I've been having boot up problems lately.

What's happening is as follows:

-From a cold boot (restart works fine) the process locks at the splash
screen or after the desktop icons (not the background) load. When I alt+D
the message I get is that msqsrv32 is not responding and systray not
responding.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

You folks are, by far, the best.

I am not as knowledgeable in WinME problems as many of the long-timers here,
but maybe my experience can help. I ran into "msgsrv32 not responding" a
couple of times after a rencent USB 2.0 pci card installation. Then it
cleared up! I swear.. I did absolutely nothing else hardware-wise or
software-wise. But I would "fix" the immediate problem by simply killing
the process. WinMe seemed to recover from that on its own. Two months
later no problems, until..

I recently got the same thing happening a couple of times again after I
installed a new NIC (different manufacturer and drivers than the previous).
And there too, the problem was temporary. and never happend again. There
too.. I just killed the process. No problems or about a month, until..

Lately I installed the IE5.5SP2 Cumulative update: 883939 ..and the
msgsrv32 problem kicked in. Again, I just killed the process. ME recovered.
Now a about 2 days later, ME is still running quite smoothly.

HTH (hope this helps)
YMMV (your mileage may vary)!

Thanks for the detailed message. My problem has gone away for the most
part. The system sometimes has trouble booting though. I suspect my
install of Zone Alarm may have gotten corrupted.

Take care, ogg.

Thanks, Heirloom.

I seem to be chasing a problem not specific to the errors I mentioned. I've
had the lock up occur on another occassion and the 'not responding'
processes were explorer and systray.

Thanks again!

Zone Alarm appears to have been broken after running housecall at
trendmicro. It's a new version of the scanner which has had mixed reviews.
Recommend avoiding this online scan.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled and life appears (at least for now) to be
normal.

Take care, Heirloom. And thanks for the advice.

Zone Alarm appears to have been broken after running an online scan at
housecall by trendmicro.

Recommend avoiding this scanner, which has had mixed reviews, for WinME
users.

Thanks again for the advice.

Personally, I don't utilize any of the 'online' scanning offers. Call me
skeptical, but, I don't trust opening my machine to some website, regardless
of their reputation. Sure glad you got the bugs out, you did good!!!
Heirloom, old and of some use
yet
