Hello all,
Having quite a few issues with an hp Pavilion dv8000 running Vista Sp2 32 bit.
First problem is that IE won't open or update any more. Every time I try, it just says failure. Currently running IE8. Two "important updates" that I've tried installing for a while are a cumulative IE8 update (KB2792100) and the IE9 for Vista update. I've tried only updating one or the other, but both fail consistently.
Second Problem. Upon trying to open IE8, along with a host of other programs, I am prompted to save various different files. With IE8, the prompt is to save "homepage.html". When I cancel that, I get a RunDLL error "The OS cannot run %1" In other programs, for example quick books, the program will open, but at some point, I again get prompted to download a .htm file. With Quickbooks, it's "las_box.htm" twice and "eco_box.htm" once. After I hit cancel on those, Quickbooks seems to run fine.
Third, at various times, I get the message "The ordinal 459 could not be located in the dynamic link library urlmon.dll" with a program name in the title bar. The one I have up now is OIS.EXE, but I think it's just what ever program has caused the issue. I have tried this KB (You cannot open a new Internet Explorer window or nothing occurs after you click a link) but it doesn't seem to help at all. Just says to run regsrv32 on urlmon.dll but that doesn't work.
So... if anyone has any info on this stuff, that would be great. We're ready to throw it out the window.:banghead:
