When trying to launch your MSN connection or another connection

using the Microsoft Connection Manager, you may encounter the

following error message:

Windows cannot find cmmgr32.exe.

This program is needed for opening files of type 'ProfileName'

You will then be prompted for the location of cmmgr32.exe.

If you receive this error, the Microsoft Connection Manager may

have inadvertently been uninstalled. Use the INSTCM.INF file and

steps outlined below to restore proper Microsoft Connection Manager

functionality.

To reinstall Microsoft Connection Manager:

===================================================

DEFRAG.INF - DEFRAGMENT ALL DRIVES ON SUBSEQUENT WINDOWS STARTUP

=
===================================================

The Disk Defragmenter for Windows 98 (DEFRAG.EXE) may start and

not complete its task. If repeated attempts to defragment the drive

are unsuccessful, it may be because an application is writing to the

disk. The Disk Defragmenter cannot share access to a drive with

other tasks.

An application loading automatically at startup may interfere with

DEFRAG. Run DEFRAG before applications load at startup by adding

a value for DEFRAG.EXE /ALL to the RunServicesOnce key in the

registry.

To add a value for DEFRAG.EXE /ALL to the RunServicesOnce key:

1. Select DEFRAG.INF in the \Tools\MTSutil folder

on the Windows 98 Second Edition CD.

2. Right-click DEFRAG.INF

-or-

Hold down the SHIFT key and press F10.

3. Choose INSTALL to add the value for DEFRAG.EXE /ALL.

=====================================

IPAC_OFF.INF - DISABLE TCP/IP IP AUTOCONFIGURATION

=
=====================================

The Windows 98 TCP/IP stack supports a new mechanism for automatic

address assignment of IP addresses for simple LAN-based network

configurations. IP Autoconfiguration Addressing is an extension of

dynamic IP address assignment for LAN adapters. It enables

configuration of IP addresses without using static IP address

assignment or installing a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol

(DHCP) server.

If a network LAN adapter is configured for TCP/IP, and if "Obtain

an IP address automatically" is selected on the IP Address tab in

the TCP/IP Properties dialog box, Windows 98 TCP/IP attempts to find

and use a DHCP service on the attached network to obtain a

dynamically assigned IP address. If it does not find a DHCP service,

Windows 98 uses IP Autoconfiguration Addressing by assigning the

adapter a Class B IP address out of the network number 169.254.x.x

IP address space. In this way, two PCs can be plugged into a LAN hub

and can start without any IP address configuration, and can use

TCP/IP networking for internetworking. Each computer that uses IP

Autoconfiguration Addressing gets an IP address and tests to

determine that the IP address is unique and not already in use on

the LAN.

IP Autoconfiguration Addressing is enabled by default. IP

Autoconfiguration Addressing can be controlled by setting the value

of IPAutoconfigurationEnabled (type DWORD) in the registry key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\DHCP

If the value of IPAutoconfigurationEnabled is nonzero or if the

registry key is absent, IP Autoconfiguration Addressing is enabled.

An IPAutoconfigurationEnabled value of 0 disables the IP

Autoconfiguration Addressing feature.

If Windows 98 initially does not detect a DHCP service and configures

an IP Autoconfiguration IP address, and then subsequently discovers

a DHCP service on the network, Windows 98 uses the DHCP service and

switches from 169.254.x.x addressing to IP addresses assigned by a

DHCP server.

To set the registry value for IPAutoconfigurationEnabled value to 0:

1. Select IPAC_OFF.INF in the \Tools\MTSutil folder

on the Windows 98 Second Edition CD.

2. Right-click IPAC_OFF.INF

-or-

Hold down the SHIFT key and press F10.

3. Choose INSTALL to modify the IPAutoconfigurationEnabled value.

=
===================================

IPAC_ON.INF - ENABLE TCP/IP IP AUTOCONFIGURATION

=
===================================

Refer to the previous section for information concerning

IP Autoconfiguration.

IP Autoconfiguration Addressing is enabled if the value of

IPAutoconfigurationEnabled is nonzero or if the registry key

is absent.

To set the registry value for IPAutoconfigurationEnabled value to 1:

1. Select IPAC_ON.INF in the \Tools\MTSutil folder

on the Windows 98 Second Edition CD.

2. Right-click IPAC_ON.INF

-or-

Hold down the SHIFT key and press F10.

3. Choose INSTALL to modify the IPAutoconfigurationEnabled value.

=
============================

JAVA.INF - REINSTALL JAVA VIRTUAL MACHINE

=
============================

When you start your computer, you may receive the following error message:

Unable to install java packages. The command line is invalid.

Cannot find file specified - Win32.cab

Cannot find file specified - xmldso4.cab

Cannot find file specified - dajava.cab

Cannot find file specified - iejava.cab

Cannot find file specified - osp.zip

This behavior can occur for any of the following reasons:

- You used the System.1st file to test or correct issues with the

registry.

- Setup stopped responding and you restarted your computer.

To work around this behavior, use the appropriate method.

NOTE: If you restarted your computer to finish Setup, once Setup

is complete the Microsoft Virtual Machine (VM) for Java is

functional and the error message is not displayed.

To reinstall the Java Virtual Machine:

1. Select JAVA.INF in the \Tools\MTSutil folder on the

Windows 98 Second Edition CD.

2. Right-click JAVA.INF

-or-

Hold down the SHIFT key and press F10.

3. Choose INSTALL to reinstall the Java VM.

=
=================================

MAPC_OFF.INF - DISABLE MAPPING OF CACHED PAGES

=
=================================

Windows 98 supports the mapping of cached pages to increase the

amount of memory available to running applications. The Windows 98

memory manager architecture divides memory into 2 parts:

- Protected-mode disk cache (VCACHE)

- Memory allocated to run programs and hold data (VMM)

Reading from memory is much faster than reading from the hard disk.

VCACHE improves performance by reducing the number of times the hard

disk is accessed. A process in memory will demand a particular

section of code; if that section of code is in VCACHE, it can be

accessed and used much more quickly than if that section of code

needs to be read from a file on disk. For example, if you were to

launch an application, close it, and then shortly thereafter launch

it a second time, the application's launch time would now be

noticeably reduced. This is a result of copying much of the

application from VCACHE instead of the hard disk.

Memory allocated to the disk cache is not available to executing

processes. Reducing the amount of memory available to running

applications negatively impacts performance by increasing the amount

of data swapped from memory to the hard disk. Once again, reading

from memory is much faster than reading from the swap file on the

hard disk.

In Windows 95, there are two instances of some code in physical

memory; one instance stored in the disk cache to reduce the time

required to load the application should it be invoked again, and

another instance in VMM for the running application. Eliminating the

instance of the data in the cache would increase the amount of memory

available to VMM, but would negatively impact application reload times.

Windows 98 supports the mapping of cached pages to increase the

amount of memory available to running applications. Memory mapped

I/O from the cache eliminates needless duplication of data while

the application is running. Application code is loaded into VCACHE,

and then executes out of the cache rather than having to be copied

to another part of memory before it executes. When the application is

closed, the memory manager labels the space that application was

using as not currently being used to maintain the benefits of

caching--if the application is not restarted, that space is given to

other tasks. If the application is restarted, the application still

exists in the cache, maintaining improved application reload times.

Windows 98 maps cached pages by default. This performance enhancement

can be disabled by creating a MapCache entry in the registry key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\VMM

If the MapCache entry does not exist, Windows 98 will map cached

pages. Creating the MapCache entry will disable the mapping of

cached pages.

To create the registry entry for MapCache:

1. Select MAPC_OFF.INF in the \Tools\MTSutil folder

on the Windows 98 Second Edition CD.

2. Right-click MAPC_OFF.INF

-or-

Hold down the SHIFT key and press F10.

3. Choose INSTALL to create the entry for MapCache.

=
===============================

MAPC_ON.INF - ENABLE MAPPING OF CACHED PAGES

=
===============================

Refer to the previous section for information concerning the mapping

of cached pages.

Windows 98 will map cached pages if the entry for MapCache is

absent.

To remove the registry entry for MapCache:

1. Select MAPC_ON.INF in the \Tools\MTSutil folder

on the Windows 98 Second Edition CD.

2. Right-click MAPC_ON.INF

-or-

Hold down the SHIFT key and press F10.

3. Choose INSTALL to remove the entry for MapCache.

=
===============================================

NNT.INF - REMOVE THE NAMENUMERICTAIL VALUE FROM THE REGISTRY

=
===============================================

If you add the "NameNumericTail=0" value to the registry (as

documented on page 688 of the Microsoft Windows 95 Resource Kit)

and then run Windows 98 Setup, Microsoft Plus! 98 Setup, or the

Add/Remove Programs tool in Control Panel, programs in the Program

Files folder may no longer work correctly.

When you add the "NameNumericTail=0" value to the registry,

Windows 98 Setup, Microsoft Plus! Setup, or the Add/Remove Programs

tool may change the short name for the Program Files folder. For

example, if you run the Add/Remove Programs tool after you add the

"NameNumericTail=0" value to the registry, the short name for the

Program Files folder may be changed from Progra~1 to Programf.

If the short name for the Program Files folder is different from

the name that the program you are trying to run expects, the program

may not be able to locate the folders and files it needs.

Various tools and components installed in the Program Files folder

may use short file names internally or during installation. If the

short name for the Program Files folder is different from the short

name expected by a tool or component, the problems described in this

article may occur. This problem can affect any program installed

in the Program Files folder.

The "NameNumericTail=0" value is not supported in Windows 98.

Although this registry value works as expected, it can cause

problems for Windows 98 components.

To correct this problem, follow these steps:

1. Delete the value "NameNumericTail=0" from the following registry

key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem

2. Using Windows Explorer or My Computer, rename the Program Files

folder to Programs.fld.

3. Rename the Programs.fld folder to Program Files.

Note: Renaming the folder forces a new short name for the folder

to be generated.

To remove the NameNumericTail value from the registry:

1. Select NNT.INF in the \Tools\MTSutil folder

on the Windows 98 Second Edition CD.

2. Right-click NNT.INF

-or-

Hold down the SHIFT key and press F10.

3. Choose INSTALL to remove the NameNumericTail value.

=
============================

NOIDE.INF - REMOVE THE NOIDE REGISTRY KEY

=
============================

If your computer contains a PCI-IDE hard disk controller that

employs serialization between the two IDE channels, you may

experience the following problems:

- 32-bit file system access and 32-bit virtual memory are

not available.

- Device Manager displays an exclamation point in a yellow

circle for the primary and secondary IDE channels.

Removing and reinstalling the hard disk controller does not

resolve the problem.

This can occur if the protected-mode driver for the hard disk

controller was not properly initialized when you started

Windows 98 previously. When this occurs, a NOIDE entry is placed

in the registry, preventing Windows 98 from making future attempts

to initialize the protected-mode driver.

This problem can occur with an IDE controller that requires

serialization between the primary and secondary IDE channels.

The protected-mode drivers for these IDE controllers can fail to

be initialized if one of the following situations occurs:

- One IDE channel has a supported hard disk, and the second channel

has a CD-ROM or other type of drive that requires real-mode

drivers to be loaded. Because of the serialization between the two

IDE channels, it is impossible to access the hard disk in

protected mode and use the other device in real mode. This causes

the protected-mode driver to fail initialization, and the NOIDE

switch is placed in the registry to prevent future errors. Both

disk devices then operate in real-mode.

- The driver for the IDE controller is manually removed from

Device Manager and then reinstalled, or the protected-mode driver

is disabled and then re-enabled. Some PCI controller drivers are

not designed for dynamic enabling and disabling, and can cause the

protected-mode driver to fail initialization.

To cause Windows 98 to attempt to reinitialize the protected-mode IDE

driver, remove the NOIDE entry from the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\IOS

To remove the NOIDE entry from the registry:

1. Select NOIDE.INF in the \Tools\MTSutil folder

on the Windows 98 Second Edition CD.

2. Right-click NOIDE.INF

-or-

Hold down the SHIFT key and press F10.

3. Choose INSTALL to remove the NOIDE entry.

After you update the registry, restart Windows 98. Windows 98 will

then attempt to initialize the protected-mode driver for the

controller. If no problems are encountered, the file system and

virtual memory will operate in 32-bit mode, and Device Manager will

not display an exclamation point in a yellow circle for the IDE

channels.

If the protected-mode driver is not initialized properly, an error

message will be displayed and the NOIDE registry entry will be

recreated. Windows 98 will use the MS-DOS compatibility mode file

system the next time you start the computer.
