How to Reinstall Browseui.dll


Reinstall Browseui.dll
1. Restart the computer. Click \"Start,\" \"Shut Down,\" then \"Restart.\" Alternatively, use the physical \"Restart\" button on your computer if the Windows \"Start\" menu does not appear on your desktop.
2. Boot into Windows' \"Safe Mode with Command Prompt\" by pressing the \"F8\" key as the computer boots. Select \"Safe Mode with Command Prompt\" with the \"Up\" and \"Down\" arrow keys, then press \"Enter.\" When prompted, select your Windows operating system entry with the \"Up\" and \"Down\" arrow keys, then hit \"Enter.\"
3. Insert your Windows installation disc into the disc drive, then close the drive.
4. Navigate to Windows' \"System32\" folder by typing \"cd\\windows\\system32\" at the command prompt, then hitting \"Enter.\"
5. Rename the corrupted Browseui.dll file. Type \"ren browseui.dll browseui.old\" at the command prompt, then hit \"Enter.\" It's okay if Windows tells you the file does not exist; ignore the message and skip this step.
6. Navigate to the disc drive by typing its drive letter followed by a colon, then hitting \"Enter\". For example, navigate to the disc drive with the default drive letter by typing \"D:\" followed by \"Enter.\"
7. Navigate to the \"i386\" folder on the disc by typing \"cd i386\", then pressing \"Enter.\"

How to Fix an Emerge Sandbox Error


1. Access the Bugzilla database, a debugging research database specifically for sandbox errors.
2. Find your sandbox error message within the error messages listed by using the “find” search tool and plugging in the exact language in your error message.
3. Examine the information provided about your specific sandbox error message to see if a fix is provided. If so, follow the directions for instituting the fix. If your specific error is not listed, use the fix provided for the error messages closest to yours.
4. Find the corrupted ebuild — if the above steps do not reveal the problem — using “Addpredict.” Access the sandbox shell and apply the Addpredict function to any suspect ebuild. The ebuild will be allowed to simulate a write to the live file system, which reveals a malfunctioning ebuild.

How to Fix the Network Port in Windows XP


1. Scan your PC for viruses and spyware. Many of these malicious programs can cause connectivity problems. Run a complete system scan instead of a quick one so that all files on the computer will be checked. Complex viruses can resist removal. These can be removed by restoring the system to a time before the virus/spyware took root.
2. Use System Restore if you can't get rid of the malware. Go to 'Start' and point to 'All Programs,' then choose 'Accessories,' then 'System Tools,' then 'System Restore.' On the Welcome screen, click 'Restore my computer to an earlier time.' If it is already selected, just click 'Next.' On the next page, choose a restore point prior to the time the problems began. If a confirmation message appears, click 'OK.' On the page titled 'Confirm Restore Point Selection,' click 'Next.' When finished, the computer will restart.
3. Check the firewall for blocked ports. Normally, Windows XP's firewall will let you know when a program is being blocked. The 'Windows Security Alert' will pop up and give you three options. If you are sure the program isn't harmful, choose 'Unblock' to allow the connection. You may not see this alert if it has been disabled; this can be changed in the settings.
4. Open the Windows Firewall. Click 'Start' and choose 'Run.' In the box, type 'wscui.cpl,' and then click 'OK.' In the Windows Firewall dialog box, you should see a check mark by 'Display a notification when Windows Firewall blocks a program.' If not, click to add one.
5. Repair the connection automatically. There is a feature in XP that will check the connection and fix problems with the network and ports. To find it, go the 'Control Panel' in the 'Start' menu and open 'Network Connections.' Right-click on the troublesome connection and choose 'Repair.'
