| 176049 | 2003-09-17 21:40:00 | I can confirm that those pages are taking a VERY long time to load but I got the "MS Encarta won't work" one opened. There is nothing useful in it though, ie no solution. | Susan B (19) | ||
| 176050 | 2003-09-17 21:44:00 | This thread ( . pcworld . co . nz/thread . jsp?forum=1&thread=27116&message=100598&q=encarta#100598" target="_blank">pressf1 . pcworld . co . nz) "IE 6 Security settings" is the one with the solution . Replies as follows: Try this, Ted: go to google . co . nz/ and enter "encarta atlas internet explorer security" in the search window . The fifth match, titled "Tiny Computers Support Site/Reference Section" will give you a fix . Isn't google wonderful? Thanks Graham After following the procedure two things happened firstly IE stopped working, if I didnt have goback to reverse changes in registry like it said I would be in deep crap It says delete internet key so sure the ie will stop . Secondly sure the error message went away but it still kept asking for the cd to be put in the drive and it was there I think I might give up and smash the ms encarts atlas 2000 cd and buy another non microsoft one . Oh dear . "Internet Settings" . . . did that have any lower levels? worth a look . That site looks "proper", so I think they'd not sabotage people . The second match from that site has a note at the bottom: Disk 7 is the install disk for Encarta Atlas, to run it, it needs disk 8 . Cannot help you with the Encarta Security settings but isn't Encarta Atlas made up of 2 disks, I don't have it installed right now but off memory you installed it using one disk and accessed the program using the other disk . When it prompts you to insert the CD have you tried the other CD(s) instead? Just a thought which you might already have tried . Tedheath, I just tried my atlas for the first time and got the same warnings as you, but I just ignored it and put in my Encarta disc 3 (ME) and everything seems to work fine . Thanks Duck, Danger, and Graham, Used the second disk and away it went warning messages and all . People like me shouldnt be allowed to play with technical things like computers . Thanks again for taking the time out to help a retard . Sorry, but I am too lazy to copy and paste the usernames with the replies . Hope that helps . |

| 176051 | 2003-09-17 21:45:00 | Thanks Susan but somewhere between threads 111 to 116 is the solution for Grimy. When I try it takes so long it comes up with page not displayed. I have dial up and live in northern East Massey so I arent in the wops or anything tedheath |
