When booting up my Presario with W98V2, I get the following error message: Can't find "stars.exe". After cancelling out the next message is the same but only for the desktop. Help! Mike Armstrong

Some program that was on your system set itself to run at startup. If it is a program that you want, you need to re-install the program, or point the shortcut to the correct folder.
First check in the StartUp folder of the Programs Menu. If theprogram is there, you can right click on it and either delete it to get rid of it, or click on prefferences to correct the target folder.
If it is not there, go to start / run and type in msconfig in the run box.
Click on the startup tab, and disable the stars program.
Since you are using Win98, you might also want to check WIN.INI for "load=stars.exe" near the top and if it exists there, replace it with "load=" (without the quotes).
If you're asking for technical help, please be sure to include all your system info, including operating system, model number, and any other specifics related to the problem. Also please exercise your best judgment when posting in the forums--revealing personal information such as your e-mail address, telephone number, and address is not recommended.
