Computer help-PLEASE

[elninoalex]

I keep getting these pop-up error messages- Internet Explorer Script Error. It's like there is a problem reading the script, always on character 1 of line 812. Does anyone know anything about this? My 4 year old son Alex likes to delete programs for me. So maybe he got rid of an important one. Every internet session, I get like this message about 10 times and it is driving me crazy. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Also, I am getting DSL in my home. I current am running a Celeron 533 with 192MB RAM. Is now a good time to upgrade processors? I have been looking at those Motherboard/Processor combos. Is there anything else I should do at the same time?

Thanks.

Upgrade your browser to IE 6. That should fix it.

[elninoalex]

That did it. Thank you. You are indeed my hero.

Well now the script errors are gone, but I lose my internet connection now when I click "pay now" on ebay.

[Tim]

Hmm... that's very strange. Are you on dialup? Does it boot you off immediately or does your machine just hang or something?

[ensteele]

Maybe they don't like your money! :D If it is green, it should be good. ;)

[elninoalex]

I am on dialup. Every time I get on ebay, I get a fatal error. It's not just when I try to pay. It's all the time now, sometimes right away, sometimes a minute later. Paypal too. Other than that, no problems. Is there something else I need to update to go with the IE 6.0?

BTW what is greem money? All my CCs are gray.

This is the message I keep receiving.

That looks like a BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) to me... is it big and Blue? If so go to windows update and DL (download) all critical updates and try again...

[AFBeefcake]

Well it looks to me like the program WCS2000 (CompuServe 2000) is the creating a problem in your kernel.
I would try using the internet without CompuServe running in the background.

I ran scandisk and 3 hours later it seems to be ok now. I went out and bought a new component system:

Athlon XP 2200+
Soyo SW-KT400 Dragonlite motherboard
80 GB 7200 rpm hard drive
512 MB RAM
Arcade FX Geoforce2 MX 400 Video card
DVD ROM
CD-RW
new tower with fans and power supply

for $300(they screwed up and forgot to charge for the memory)

That should get me on the right track for my DSL on Tuesday.

where did you get a deal like that?? local shop?

[elninoalex]

There is a warehouse store that always blows everyone else away in price. It's called Fry's Electronics. I'm having a fun time trying to plug in the tower cables to the motherboard. They made it sound so easy.

Stephen

[srmifer]

and that stuff is all new in box? i'm looking for something cheap and fast for my home desktop and that sounds like a steal. lol...i have no fry's by me...and their website is horrid...if i were to possibly give you some cash, do you think you could get me a component system comparable to what you got...then ship it out to me? i'd cover all expenses, of course...just a thought!

[elninoalex]

Yeah, it's all new in box. But they actually didn't charge me for the hard drive(I thought it was the memory), so I saved about $60. It was like $90 minus $30 rebate. Their selection is incredible and but their ads only run for about 3 days at a time. And they sell out a lot of stuff. But they do blow everyone away in prices, around here at least. I could probably hook you up with some components. But you should probably furnish your own case. That would be more $$$$ to ship.
