Subject: RE: Tech: Help me fix my computer?
Well it's been an ongoing search for info and not being very successful!

I went to the Microsoft Tech and Helpline, and tried to download the "Windows Update" and kept being shut down by a KERNEL 32DLL pop-up! It just wouldn't let me download the Window's update...

So then I went into my "search for files and folder" to look for either a text or a file with that name, and NOTHING found...

I then went to MajorGeeks.com who have all kinds of nifty free downloads, just in case you don't know, and downloaded a "Simmstester" which tests my system's Memory (which I was informed from a Google search site, that said the KERNEL32 is all about that..this was something listed dozens of times under "troubleshooting" over at the Microsoft Help website, but not in the form that would help me) and after making a diskette and rebooting from it, the program showed NOTHING. It just said it "Passed", which leaves me exactly...

BACK where I started!!

Any ideas?

I wish this was fun, but at the moment, it's just frustrating.Anyone out there still willing to come with me down this yellow brick road?
