I figured out I needed Windows Media Encoder to create a live stream. That caused a problem with CPU usage would be equivelent to powering the space shuttle with the engine out of a Geo Metro.

If you don't recall downloading it, I wouldn't advise executing it. I've never heard of it, but it might be worth your while to run a google search on the filename. There is no magic in computing, unless you count a Windows server running for three straight days without rebooting magic. Things that magically appear on the desktop are almost always the result of somebody's mischief, which is rarely directed to your benefit.

I know I've posted about this before, but as I learn more I'm hopeful that my question will become more refined. Bear with me...
When I registered a domain name through Register.com, they set up a SOA record on their nameservers as part of the deal. I later installed Win2K Server here at home, used Active Directory, and since that requires DNS, allowed it to set up the DNS Server for me. This created a bunch of records for DNS as well as a Default-First-Site-Name section in Active Directory. The defaults are not working well, resulting in a constant flow of errors in the System Log, which fills entirely every two days with Error 5774s. None of the articles in the Knowledge Base comes close to resolving the problem, and a few have actually made it worse.
In the DNS console I find that a SOA record was automatically created, and I know that only one SOA should exist for a domain. Would it be safe to delete the local SOA record and let Register.com handle it, or should I remove the remote record and let mine be primary? What else am I missing here? I do have a local network that I want to have the local DNS service handle, so I don't want to remove it completely... Any suggestions?

Seriously though I'd try deleting the local record first and if you can't make that work try removing the remote SOA. I must warn you that I don't know much about DNS though.

specify smart host server in Delivery->Advanced if you aren't directly connected to internet.
Then using CDONTS connect to that mail instance and send your messages.
If you have your program/component running on that machine, then you don't need to do any connecting, just send and they will go.
Having message arrive is a different story because you need MX records specified.

I've been running into this a lot in the past few months. On PCs with 128MB RAM or more, 5GB HD space free, and Win98SE installed the systems crash for lack of resources when only 2 or 3 apps are running. I can't figure out what may be causing it. I've read that earlier MS O/Ss had time bombs built in that cause them to cease working after a set date, but I've found no evidence of this in Win98. The owners of these PCs want to install more memory, but I think that's a waste of their money and I don't believe that lack of RAM is really the problem. I've tried to relieve the situation by clearing out the cache for IE and removing temp files, but it hasn't helped. Any other ideas?

Hi Roger,
Believe or not I had that exact same problem as well.
Ok here is the story:
I was using Win98 as a test machine on my network at home and I had the ZIP drive connected to it, shared with all other machines on the net.
From time to time I was finding that resources would be 100% is use, and couldn't start any apps --> Error: Not enough memory to run this application.
I thought the iomega driver was causing this (as it did in the past). removed it, to my disappoitment it wasnt that.
So I had a copy of Win98 First Edition and installed that in. Bang, problem did not appear anymore, it has been running for a year now with no problems, but the mystery with Win 98 SE, still not solved.
Strange thing about that was, with Process Explorer I couldn't see what application was eating the memory!
What's happening on your machines when you run a Process Utility? Can you see where the RAM is going?
Regards,
Venet.

The processes running vary, and none seems to be eating RAM excessively. I thought initially that the swap file was running out of space, but checking the disk revealed far more avaiable space than needed. The drive had also been scanned and defragged within the past 5 days on both of the machines I'm currently looking at. There could be a leak somewhere in Win98SE itself, but both machines are turned off every night. Crazy OS...

I don't have a solution for you even tough I have run into this problem myself recently. Trying to talk these particular customers into purchasing new machines with (shock horror) Windows XP Professional on them. They have heaps of money and are running their own domain and Exchange Server on NT 4 Server so 9x is a piece of crap in this situation. This gets rid of our Windows 98 problem but also gets them systems that will work with their current setup correctly.
Back to your problem, I have two other steps I perform in conjunction* with what you have already done. Ad-aware 6 just in case there are some nasties there and Norton WinDoctor (I have SystemWorks which launches select utilities from the CD) which does a great job of removing crap from the registry.
I also perform WindowsUpdate to the machines in case Microsoft actually manage to fix a problem that maybe causing this error. By the sounds of it WindowsUpdate couldn't make it much worse.
* Not the word I wanted to use but after a couple of minutes of hard thinkning I couldn't come up with something better.

It was an appropriate choice.
Windows Update, in my experience, is more likely to destroy the machine than fix it, but it may be worth attempting if I can get assurance from the boss involved that buying a new machine is possible if all else fails. I hesitate to try it, though, because at least one of these machines has a lousy ISP connection that drops out frequently, and changing ISPs is not an option.

Windows 9x has some of the old Win 3.11 resource limitations imposed on it. It only allows something like 2MB for GDI heap, another 2MB for user, etc.
Windows98SE and ME are worse in this respect than Windows 95/98, but they all have big resource trouble. I use Windows 98 for everything I do, 'cause it's what I have. (I'm going to be upgrading when I get the funds.) I have to restart my computer every 15 minutes. I recommend they have resource meter running in the system tray, and restart when the resouces go below 35%. AND upgrade ASAP.

Hi
I'm having a problem when exporting from the registry.
One of the values are a empty string (according to regedit / regedt32 / and my program) but when exporting this value to a file, it has a value. It is not garbage, but a string copied from one of the other values in the key.
The name of the value is "Start_Parameters"
If I manually delete and add the value , with "new > string value" the value has no data in regedit, but on export is has a "square" char. My program reads it as <empty>
After importing the file, the program reads it as "?"
It's really annoying since my program wont work on another pc when the settings are imported there. I've to edit it in notepad before importing.
Using W2K / VC 6

This sounds like a character that the font doesn't support. Can you use a hex editor to see the characters ascii value? It may have some significance and help you to determine what it is or how it gets into the file upon export from the registry.

Hi
It has the value 00 00 (registry is exported as uni-code I guess)
I have tried to expiriment but it doesn't seems like this error is consistent. After several trial and errors it suddenly stopped giving the exporting error.
I suspected it could because I used forward slash "/" in the key name, but other keys with "/" exported alright.
It is like the value has not been initialised.
------
Starting of with a clean (deleted / non-existent) registry key.
After my program creates the key and the empty string value, then every empty string values added manually (via regedit.exe) to this key would give this error. The empty string will be exported as having a value of another string value
I'm beginning to think it's an error in regedit.exe
When watching the same key in "regedt32.exe" it is not empty, and neither when watching the contents from my program

It's me again. Don't have the silver bullet unfortunately, but something I ran into last night maybe related or at least as bizarre as what you ran into.
Under Windows 2000 I exported the registry key for Outlook 2000 attachments. I was running on NTFS. I copied this file to a Windows 98 SE machine running FAT32 and found I couldn't import the file as it wasn't a registry file according to Windows 98. I then looked at the file using notepad and found several black squares where carriage return line feeds should have been.
Wondering if this weirdness in Windows was the same problem yoiu were running into.

Hi
I don't think it is the same problem.
When you export from w2k, the reg file is unicoded. This can't be shown in w98 notepad (try wordpad instead)
According to the reg export from the w2k system it is:
"Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00"
Maybe w98 can't read these because it is to new a format ?
