DDE Server Window "Not responding"
More and more by computer has been having a problem shuting down.
I keep getting a window saying "DDE Server Window" not responding..
I have gone to Microsoft and they state that there is a HotFix for this issue,
but you need to call them... So I did.. They told me that I need to contact Dell
for the HotFix, or they will handle it for a fee...
So, here I am, asking if anyone else has had this issue, and if so, where
did they get the HotFix....
Thanks

Install any new hardware or software recently?
Try running a windows system file check:
start>run
type in: sfc /scannow
(space between sfc and /)
click ok
Insert XP CD if sfc requests it. Reboot when it's done. sfc will replace any damaged or missing XP system files.

Is this the hotfix you installed?
Are there any error messages in the Windows Event Viewer?
You could try running a windows system file check:
click start>run
type in: sfc /scannow
(space between sfc and /)
click OK
Insert XP CD if sfc requests it and reboot when it's done.

Do you know what file sfc wanted, but couldn't find? Look in Event Viewer for Windows File Protection entries at the time you ran sfc. It should list the error/missing file.
Request a replacement Windows CD from Dell (free). Start here.
