I'm using Windows XP Pro.

I use Emacs because it has a nice LaTeX mode (and the AucTEX package, obtained seperately). I have not used the Windows XP versions, but they should be identical. I provide links below. The learning curve is a bit steep, but I think it's worth it.\n\nNOTE: the auctex site provides a pre-bundled version of Emacs with auctex. It may be worth downloading that instead of installing the package yourself.

Microsoft has this article for XP. Hope this helps :)\n\nhttp://support.microsoft.com/?id=316751

Few things you can do.  Try to enter Win XP in safe mode then try to find out and fix the problem there.  Or re-load Windows Xp if you don't know how to do this then bring it somewhere and pay for it to be fixed.

You need to get the XP pro upgrade.  It should come with a new recovery disc.

There is a system restore on your computer you can restore it to a time that had it the way it used to be (I hope I am clear with this). I have had to do that as well and it worked for me. If not then you need to clean your system and go to windows online and there are some forums there with anwsers there that will help its full of windows geeks and they are helpfull as well with this. If you cant restore this then you may have to delete it and reload it on the computer. I am sorry I am new to windows XP PRO myself but I had this problem last month and I jsut did a total system restore and it worked.

Go to the microsoft web site.  They have what the requirements are.   I downloaded it on another machine I have and it took about 40 mintues I think. I've got 2000 pro. on this one, so I can't go with just regular xp... which I wish I would have known.

Win XP, that means you have System restore, use it, \nAccesories--------->System Tools------------>System restore.

Hi Maria,\n\nReally, you need to upgrade from ME to XP as soon as you possibly can.  ME is possibly the worst Operating System Microsoft ever came out with.  It is loaded with errors and vulnerabilities.  Until you're able to do this, though, you can try some things suggested in the link I've included below for you that talks about User32.dll errors.  I hope this works for you.\n\nAs far as updating your drivers, just go to the Microsoft Windows Update site (click on Tools, then click on Windows Update).  You'll get all the updates and many of the drivers your computer needs.  For specific drivers, you can go to the specific site for those, such as video drivers, sound cards, etc.\n\nThe ActiveX message isn't that big a deal.  If you are sure of the website that you are using, go ahead and allow the ActiveX control to be loaded.  The only thing that may happen if you don't load it is that the display may not look the way the author intended.  It will not harm your computer in any way.\n\nAgain, though, please upgrade from ME as soon as you can.  You'll be happy you did.  You can get XP Home for less than $100, or XP Pro for something like $185 or so, depending on where you go.\n\nBest of luck to you.

This usually happens when Windows XP is busy with another applications or processes.  Sometimes wait awhile will get it back, but more often a restart should fix the problem.

Probably the version of windows you are running is corrputed and you need to reinstall that version of windows.

Under the circumstances, a clean install would be the best option. Delete the 3 directories ie. PROGRAM FILES; WINDOWS; MYDOCUMENTS and you're over with Win9x. Boot the computer using the XP disc and pick up the setup from there.
