Compaq Presario 2300 dealer-config; 128Mb RAM; W95; 4Gb HD w/only 500Mb
used.
Nothing that involves accessing the internet seems to work. AOL v3 or v4
will work as long as I'm accessing AOL-located content. Any attempt to
go to the WWW will fail with a message like: "Error in WAOL.exe -
program fault at 000137:xxxxxx in WININET.DLL". I think I'm amalgamating
two error messages there - one comes up initially and the rest is
displayed when "details" is selected...
Any attempt to re-install AOL displays the same error when the attempt
to install the browser is reached. Likewise if I try to install IE4 or
IE5 directly from CD.
Of course, IE won't launch - same message.
I "successfully" re-installed Win95 with no impact upon the problem.
The Compaq is a present to a friend from their father-in-law. She
doesn't know who the dealer was and would prefer not to have to go to
her father-in-law to tell him that there's a problem...
