Hello.
HELP!
Something has gone wonky in my computer, and I can't do
most things. If I try to open MOST files (not all) I get
the error "This program does not have a program associated
with it for performing this action".
This happens with almost all programs (MS Office, Outlook
Express, etc), BUT it doesn't happen with Internet
Explorer. That opens up the browser fine.
When I try to click on My Computer, or most icons in
Control Panel, I get the message "Access to specified
device, path or file is denied".
I don't know where to start to try to fix this thing!!
Thanks,
amber
 
I need some clarification.

1. Can you open EXE files (programs)? Can you open some programs, and not
others?
2. Can you open TXT files (text documents)?
3. Can you open Word documents from within Word? (File->Open...)
