AskWoody LoungerThank you. Worked perfectly.

AskWoody LoungerI checked all of my files………and NO, I did not partition the drive on purpose. After I posted, I found out that it had been partitioned when it was installed this spring. Unfortunately, I have never partitioned a drive, so I am about to learn something new. Any pointers?

AskWoody LoungerIt shouldn’t have………it is all web based and have been using it for a couple of years.

AskWoody LoungerWell, it worked, but I was having to tweak the settings every few days because My Pictures would go away again and would not let me add it (see attached). So I went through and deleted all instances of NoSMMyPictures in the registry……but I think I screwed up. The link is now on the Start Menu, but when I try to sort the programs list, I do not get the menu when I right click. So I went back and imported by backup registry file, rebooted, but still unable to sort. Ok, can someone help this crazy woman?????!!

AskWoody LoungerI have tried all of the suggestions except this one, and I am leery to do so as this is my business machine, and I would prefer not to upset the proverbial “apple cart”.

AskWoody LoungerSee the attachment. I did not see anything that is obvious to me.

AskWoody LoungerI uninstalled Java. I then rebooted. The application is web-based, so there is no uninstall. I then repaired the Office installation. Still receiving these start up logos……

AskWoody LoungerThanks, that worked!

AskWoody LoungerThanks for your quick response. However, like I stated in my previous message, that option is not available on the advanced tab. My Docs, My Network, My Computer, etc., but no My Pictures.

After doing some research (see MS knowledge base Article ID : 897754 ) http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?…kb;en-us;897754%5B/url%5D
I was able to remedy the situation. Thanks for your help. Luckily, I still had the MS Office XP Media Content CD. -
