i cant uninstall alone in the dark, my comp loads it automatically from startup, i cant bypass it now

Then you are running dos.Never encountered this problem, but try this
When the computer boots, press F8, and then go to step by step, or something like that.Press <Y> to all the files, except when you see a line called "DEVICE=C:\ALONE\alone.exe", or something similar.Post back if you failed

Good luck

yeah, itried all the loopholes i know, i will get the step by step list my comp has for you...

1 thing i know is, there is...



drive: c [y or n]
call: desktop/ggg
... alone/ggg/

dos p$p$ [y or n]


ill get the right list, its on my other computer, thank you for the reply, i hate when i cant figure it out myself, i'm usually good at it.


cheers. -noz-

Rather stupid suggestion: Have you checked in autoexec.bat / config.sys? Sorry in case this advise is way too basic...

mmm let's recap:
You are using DOS(pure dos), right? Then you just got to find the line in the config.sys that calls the game exe, resulting in an infinte loop.The problem is basic, and i don't see another solution.If anything boot from the floppy.Start form there, and search your config.sys file... maybe your autoexec file too, but config.sys is the file most likely guilty.Look for middle files, check every reference within the config file.Look for middle files that might have an important name, but only be used to call the game
Best of luck

uh, i retrackt my last statement, im a computer noob, LOL,
ok, uh, i screwed something up so i put it back to what it was, what i did was, f8, loaded in safe mode, Delted the3 new files staright to the recycle bin.......


after i did that, when i loaded my comp, it loaded normal, showing the win98 screen and the went back to black and said...

improper drive....
bad command filename...


so. for sure you guys are right, but, its been so long since i fad to change a text file or whatever....

is this helping? also here is what my step by step says...

uh oh, i forgot i deleted those files, now i dont even have the agem or the files associated with it, ack, my comp is screwed, ok, heres my step by step


process sys y/n
creat a start log bootext.txt y/n
process your startdrivesr y/n
dos = single y/n
dos = high/umb y/n
device=c:\windows himem.sys y/n
device high=c:\windos\emm386.exe y/n


device=c:\windows\dblbuff.sys y/n
devicehighc:\windowa\ifshlp.sys y/n
process your startup command autoexec.bat y/n

echo off y/n
set tmp=c:\windows\temp y/n
set temp=c:\windows\temp y/n
set prompt= $p$p y/n
set winbootdir=c:\windows y/n
set path=c:\windows;c:\windows\command y/n
set dos_sbe=a220 i5 d1 h5 p330 t6 y/n
set blaster=a220 i5 d1 h5 p330 t6 y/n
set ctsys=c:\windows y/n
c:\progra~1\creative\sblive\dosdrv\sbeinit.com y/n

runs emulator
says init complete

then...
rem y/n
rem the following lines have been created by windows do not modify them y/n
rem y/n
c: y/n
cd c:\windows\ggg y/n
---------------> invalid directory... now that i deleted it, darn
call c:\windows\desktop\ggg\alone.exe
-----------------> bad command filename... again,now that i deleted it, darn
c:\windows\win.com. /w

press any key




ugh, hope you can help me....

p.s. i can get into safe mode but, cant use internet

i am running win98se

ok, now
i got further into nowhere land

now i get a vfat error and system halted

, at leats i can still get into safe mode

-noz-

yeah thats me up there with the messed up comp

You need to stop it from trying to get to this file and directory - go into safe mode and open up config.sys in notepad or wordpad, then search through it for those lines or lines containing those files and REM them out, then try booting again. if it all works ok you can delete the lines properly.

What Beefonthebone meant is to write REM in front of the lines you want to be skipped. Don't mistake REM for remove... :angel:
