Gamehead200 Found the problem, just needed to install older version pp97. I'm thinking if the attachment was made in an earlier version it needs that version to open it. Sometimes we make things harder than they really are. Thanks again for help

Gamehead200 Sorry it took so long to get back, the error msg :this file does not have a program assoc with it for performing this action, pls install a program or if one is already installed create an assoc in the Default Prog control panel. At the top of this box it shows the path, D:\users\name\app data\local\microsoft\windows\temp internet files\content.ie5\24... Hope this helps, Thanks again edit: I went to control panel and ck'd file association and viewer is there for .pps

Tried opening an attachment in Win Live Mail with no luck, dl'd Powerpoint viewer 2007 and installed, kept getting error msg ck file association, ck that and was ok, still no work any suggestions appreciated Thanks in advance

Your absoultly right fizban2, Creatives beta driver is just that, no frilles but does work, just not the way it's sup;posed to.

Yes (release candidate) is still beta until it's final

I don't know why your ranting about something Micrsoft was good enough to allow you to TEST and give feedback to the proper place. Beta always has a few bugs that's why people are testing it. It's a release canidate not the finished product.

Go get the latest Java VM and those secure sites will work.

Hi imccord This is a Dell specific problem on comps with creative audigy 2 oem. Simple fix go to msconfig/startup and uncheck /l:eng then go to start/allprograms/creative/sound blaster/audigy2/welcome message check "do not show this again" and your problem will be fixed. Also you can go to Dell support and their is a patch for this problem the # is R75304. Hope this helps Good Luck

Been using WMP 10 beta for about 3 months and hadn't had any probs. The little mini mode on the task bar is really cool

Been using the beta for about 2 months, can't wait for the real thing

Oh Kay if you just changed hard drives you might have to go into bios and change the drive it is booting on. Might work i'm not an expert.
