Real People are Here and We're Listening

Phew! after reading all of the prior posts I.m not sure what to make of it all.

Over the last ten years I have always purchased Dell equipment. I have only ever had two problems the first an exploding Server was fixed next day under my repair contract. (2001) The second a smoking inspiron power pack, under warrenty a replacement was sent within three days. (2009) Being non technical I find all of my problems are not with the quality of the equipment but the software and all down to my own ignorance. One one occation I contacted the Dell Forum with a query and was answered with a solution within 24 hours. So Thank you Dell you do get it right most of the time.

And now to my next issue can someone help me I have a latitude C840 that has worked fine for 9 years. On starting up I get a warning before the laptop freezes.

STOP: C000026C Unable to load device driver systemroot \ system32 \Drivers \ ptserial.sysdevice driver could not be loaded Error status 0XC000012f

Can anyone tell me how to fix this please ( I run Windows 2000)

To Martin Spencer (Feb 16 2008). I understand what you are saying re customer services I have had same problem for last 3 days, hate to think what my phone bill will be. At the end they told me to purchase a new monitor.

I'm having trouble with monitor, on/off switch won't work customer services said reboot but didn't work now they say it is broken and I need a new monitor. I have only had this one 21 months.

After having my Dell Optiplex Gx270 unpluged for a day when I plugged it up again and pressed the start button it only flashed amber and would not start... Finally after unplugging it and pressing the start button several times I saw a little pin button next to the start button and pressed it and then the start button and it started???

What happened?

Dimension E310 powers on, fan starts, and diagnostics lights 3 and 4 stay on--no monitor activity; changed memory cards and upgraded to Dell 1GB each. Still, powers on and lights 3 and 4 stay on. The monitor will not display and stays in standby mode and it will not boot into Windows XP.
