When computer starts up I get a box with a red X and the message, "There is
no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive." And three boxes
labelled, cancel, try again, and continue. If I click cancel twice the box
goes away. I'm getting kicked off the internet every 15 minutes. I linked
through a wireless router. No other computers in the house are having this
problem. I have XP Pro. Everything else seems to work OK.

Also, can I upgrade to Outlook, rather than the Outlook Express I now have.
Express doesn't seem to be enough to meet my needs. Thanks, Frankie
 
Outlook is part of Microsoft Office. You can either buy it as a stand alone
program and install it or buy an Office Suite. You can't get it for free.

Please check Event Viewer for Warning / Error Reports in the System and
Application logs for the last day and post copies.

You can access Event Viewer by selecting Start, Administrative Tools, and
Event Viewer. When researching the meaning of the error, information
regarding Event ID, Source and Description are important.

HOW TO: View and Manage Event Logs in Event Viewer in Windows XP

Part of the Description of the error will include a link, which you should
double click for further information. You can copy using copy and paste.
Often the link will, however, say there is no further information.

A tip for posting copies of Error Reports! Run Event Viewer and double click
on the error you want to copy. In the window, which appears is a button
resembling two pages. Double click the button and close Event Viewer. Now
start your message (email) and do a paste into the body of the message. This
will paste the info from the Event Viewer Error Report complete with links
into the message. Make sure this is the first paste after exiting from Event
Viewer.

What doesn't Outlook Express do that you would like it to do?

Hope this helps.
