Assertion failed?
I'm having a problem on this computer I'm working on. Win98 and an error message that I get when going to My Computer. When i click on MC, I get this error...Assertion failed in file D:\Projects 3.60 Client\Comet Client\BHO\CSBHO.cpp line 581 I've searched all of drive c to find this program and can't find it. I Would reinstall and then uninstall if thats what I need. When i click on details for the error, its got exception 03H. I don't understand why I'm having an error in D:\ Any help would be appreciated very much! |

The "comet client" part kind or sounds like the "comet cursor". Try searching for that in add/remove programs.
start > settings > control panel > Add/Remove Programs But then again, I don't really think comet could do something like that. Have you tried running a virus scan and scandisk?

I looked for it in Add/Remove programs and its not there. There are Comet folders in explorer, but they are either empty or just full of what looks like unzipped files. I tried Comet.exe and nothing happened. I did run a virus scan and there isn't a virus.
I tried going to System File Checker under System Information and there was nothing to repair. |

Problem is solved...i found the uninstall program for Comet Curser and that took care of it.
I do have another question though... I installed some software for my Pacific Digital external cd burner, and decided that I didn't want to use their program. Its not located in Add/Remove Programs and there isn't an uninstall program in the folder or on the cd. How do you uninstall programs that don't include that? |

What burner program was it?
Removing programs manually is a fair headache. If you can track down an uninstall file, even if the shortcut is missing, that is much easier. Morriswindgate had recommended a program called Add/Remove Plus --> http://www.aurelitec.com/software/arplus/ AddRemove Plus has a trial version: you could give it a try, and if it doesn't work, no damage done. Other things you can try: reinstall the burner program "on top of " whatever version is already on your drive. It might provide a working uninstall shortcut. Then uninstall with that, and I'd recommend a run of RegClean after that (the following link says it's for "Win95 Registry". . . but version 4.1 was updated for Win98 and Win98 2nd Edition) --> http://download.com.com/3000-2094-881470.html?tag=list Best of luck . . .
