"Parameter is Incorrect"
Whenever I reboot, a little box appears in the middle
of the screen, saying "The parameter is incorrect". It does not describe which parameter, or what shortcut is causing it. It is not a big deal, just a little nuisance. I suspect it has something to do with my Startup group, but I have emptied it out and it still does it. Suggestions? |

"Parameter is Incorrect"
Your Startup group is a minor part of Startup.
Check in Msconfig for any oddities. (Start-Run-MSCONFIG-Startup tab) If you cannot see anything in Msconfig then: Start-Run-msinfo32 Click the + beside Software Environment to expand. Click Startup Programs Ctrl+A to Select All, Ctrl+C to Copy. Paste that information in your message. ....Alan -- Alan Edwards, MS MVP W95/98 Systems http://dts-l.org/index.html In microsoft.public.windowsme.software, "LordCavendish" wrote: Whenever I reboot, a little box appears in the middle of the screen, saying "The parameter is incorrect".

Rick I woudn't have thought Bootlog.txt would show anything useful in this particular case but I will stand correction. ....Alan -- Alan Edwards, MS MVP W95/98 Systems http://dts-l.org/index.html |
