Quick, before Comf sees that I've posted a computer question on a JW board.
So my Outlook mail program is crashing... BAD. Can't seem to fix it. It will open, but the second I click on anything, an error window pops up that says "Outlook.exe has errors. An error log is being generated". The really frustrating part of this is that Microsoft puts all mail, all contacts, all everything-outlook, in one big file called a pst. A few other programs can import that file (outlook express is the only one that did it correctly, however), but they can only do it by using Outlook. So if outlook won't run.... you're screwed from accessing your mail or contacts.
I used another computer to load outlook and my old .pst files. from there I imported into outlook express for the mail, and another program for the contacts. I'll just copy my "notes" into a word document. So, my old information is safe, and of course I'll never use Outlook again anyway, so I don't care so much that it won't run on my main computer.
My problem now, is that hotmail is crashing as soon as I try to type out a reply. First time, it waited till I was done with a long reply.... since then, it is crashing quickly whenever I even begin a reply. It will let me forward messeges so far.
Could this be part of the same problem? The error messege is essentially the same, "Internet explorer has errors. an error log is being generated." Is this some freakish Windows mail problem underlying the operating system?
Also, I tried to reinstall my windows 2000 operating system, and it immediately came up with an error. How afraid should that make me? How stupid was it for me to try doing that anyway?
Btw, I tried repairing and then reinstalling Outlook, to no avail.
Damn the JW's for not giving me a good enough computer education!!! (that was for comf
