    Microsoft FAX Utility Not working


    I have a brand new HP Laptop 2 mos old and the Windows Fax utility isn't working. I can open it with no problem, customize the settings with my name and info, but when I click NEW FAX, it pauses for 5 seconds as if it's trying to load, then the whole FAX program closes completely. I tried disabling in Utilities, rebooting, then reenabling via Windows, and it still closes out after a few seconds ONLY after clicking NEW FAX. Suggestions? Thanks!

    :)

    Directory Size Utility

    Cool utility that we used to use in the DOS days!

    I've got to try it out at home, but here's one of the best features of the old utility:

    A bar graph by each folder, listing the relative size of each folder. It was great for flagging large files when housecleaning on a network... or home PC for that matter.

    The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

    Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.
