If you have Microsoft Windows 2000, the registry will experience some problems from time to time. However, you can do home computer repair to take care of these problems. If things go beyond your control, you can even involve a computer repair technician working with a remote computer support company and save considerable amount of time and money. The remote pc support technicians help you resolve all your computer related problems within few minutes. But, before we discuss the services of computer tech support company, let’s understand the functioning of Windows 2000 repair utility.

The main reason for registry problems with Windows 2000 is the small size of the registry, which is only 16 MB. Whenever this size exceeds 10 MB, you start getting startup problems.

Note that if your registry is corrupt, there is a risk of serious system errors and the computer may even become unbootable. The most widely used
[removed][removed]
 Windows 2000 repair utility is the Chkreg.exe command-line. Chkreg.exe is used for Windows 2000 Server, 2000 Advanced Server, 2000 Professional Edition, 2000, 2000 SP2, and 2000 SP3. You should not use the utility for SBS 2003 because conclusive tests have not been carried out. Chkreg.exe will help you determine the size of the registry and this will help you make informed decisions. You can get Chkreg.exe from Microsoft’s download center. 

Using Chkreg.exe command

Chkreg.exe command can be used with different options. chkreg /f filename [.log] will specify the name o the registry hive you intend to analyze. chkreg /f/H: will give you access to Chkreg.exe help. chkreg /f/D [ level ] will help you delete subkeys that fall on the level specified. The whole hive will be deleted if you do not specify the level. You should be very careful not to delete what you do not intend to delete. You will be prompted before deletion as a security measure. chkreg /f/S [ bin ] option is used to display usage of space on the bin you have specified. If you do not specify the bin, what will be displayed will be the space usage for your entire hive. chkreg /f/C option is used to compact the hive specified. Note that this utility will not compact a corrupt or bad hive. chkreg /f/L will detect all lost spaces. chkreg /f/R will repair the hive. chkreg /f/V will enable Verbose mode for more detailed information.

Microsoft Office 2000 is a major cause of registry problems in Windows 2000. To use the this registry repair utility if you had installed SR-1 update before May 12, 2000, you will first need to install the Office 2000 Service Release 1a (SR-1a) Update. This includes the Windows 2000 Registry Repair Utility and Office 2000 SR-1.

Note that some of your data may be lost during registry clean-up or fixing, but this depends on the type of the problem. You should be careful when dealing with registry because there is a risk of serious system problems. You should therefore do all you can to prevent the occurrence of registry problems in the first place. You can use registry maintenance tools for this. These are available online, but you should make sure it is OS-specific. These tools perform both preventive and proactive monitoring of your system. You should therefore create a backup, especially for data on the C partition, and you should create a system restore point.

Enterprise resource planning, or ERP software solutions and ERP vendors have been around for over forty years. The landscape of enterprise applications has steadily improved throughout the last 4 decades particularly in the mid 1990’s when the YTK, year 2000 scare was starting to take hold.

At this time ERP vendors gained the spotlight as companies started scrambling to ward off potential data and information meltdowns as the new millennium with its triple zeroes wreaked havoc on databases and records ill equipped to handle the numerical roll over. Times were extremely good for enterprise systems and the industry in general. ERP software sales, ERP consulting and implementation projects reached an all time high during this five year period.

Fortunately, the database sky did not fall when the new year rolled over to 2000 and businesses pretty much continued the dotcom bubble ride through the first quarter of the new millennium. The dotcom bubble burst in the second half of 2000 along with the YTK panic subsiding caused the ERP software industry, and most all tech industries for that matter, to take a breather. Over the next 5 years, ERP systems and ERP software lost its sizzle as technology hype began to focus on mobile applications and social network technologies.

However, since 1995, an ERP 2.0 has been emerging that can be compared with the introduction of Model T Fords to the automotive industry. The automobile revolution started not with the invention of the automobile which were a luxury item made available to only the mega wealthy but rather with the introduction of an automobile that could be enjoyed by the masses, the Model T Ford.

The same analogy can be applied to ERP software solutions and ERP modules. Historically, ERP vendors developed applications for the heavy hitting Fortune 100 manufacturing corporations with a price tag to match. The benefits achieved with ERP systems gave large organizations even more of a competitive advantage over smaller companies within the same industry as information and business processes were better streamlined to maximize resources and profitability. Very few companies could afford the million dollar plus price tag just to play, and this barrier to entry remained for decades.

However, in the last decade with web based application sparked by the internet hitting the market and with the power of open source applications and communities, smaller sized businesses are now able to take advantage of ERP software and ERP application benefits with SaaS, software as a service web-based solutions that are both affordable and powerful. In a nutshell, ERP application benefits are now available to the masses and that is starting a revolution of new product innovations that fit businesses with a very customized fit regardless of size, industry and business model.

The market is heating up for ERP vendors and for small and medium sized businesses looking for enterprise solutions to better compete in the marketplace. However, this surge of new enterprise software innovations ironically come with a price. Companies have so many choices when it comes to ERP vendors and software applications that it is not a simple task to filter all the ERP software solutions on the market to find the best fitting solution for individual companies. Companies are bombarded with not only ERP software applications but with vendors specializing in ERP modules, subset applications within full ERP systems such as CRM, customer relationship management and HRMIS, human resource management information systems ERP modules, to name just a few. However, although the ERP software selection process is a longer process now, the benefits of ERP software apps are tremendous, and it’s usually better to have too many ERP vendors and ERP apps to choose from rather than too few.

What comes to your mind when you hear the term database? Instantly you relate it to an unending list of names, telephone numbers, addresses etc. But to people in managements, sales, marketing, and customer relationship building, a database is much more than a list of names and addresses. For them, it is a tool to increase sales and profit and also a means to create loyal customers.
A customer database as the name suggests is a database especially maintained for customers. It provides many opportunities for business growth and targeted marketing. First of all, such a database helps you in building a good rapport with your customers. By retrieving information such telephone numbers, e-mails, and date of births etc., you can wish your customers on their birthdays or on anniversaries. An unexpected wish goes a long way in building up a relationship. Better still, you can offer special gifts on buying or discounts on products on such occasions. This way you can create customers who are loyal to you while at the same time selling your products.

Again you can send promotional sales and offers from time to time to your customers through their e-mails or phone numbers. You can target specific customers with such offers. For example, you can choose a customer who has not had business with you in the past one year. Again, you can point out the customers who do not show interests in your products in spite of promotional campaigns. In future, you need not waste time and effort on such customers.

Again, a customer database enables you to target specific customers. You can find out who constitute your most profitable customers and their attributes such as geographical location, age, sex, etc. By deducing these facts, you can find out your targeted audience. Having done so, now you can effectively, inclusively, and precisely market your products to them. You also have a golden opportunity to build up a good customer relationship with this elite group of customers.
Therefore you should always maintain a user database if you want to increase your sales and business returns.

At one point or another, this happens to every computer user in the world: You install   Virtual DJ, find out that you don’t like it, or need it, or that its plain useless for the task you wanted to use it for and you want to uninstall Virtual DJ. So you open up the Windows Add/Remove tool, click the button to uninstall Virtual DJ… and find out that you cannot uninstall the program. In this article I will try to explain how to force uninstall Virtual DJ, that you cannot uninstall using the Windows Add/Remove tool. Before that, however, I will try to explain what happens during installation.

What you need to know to uninstall a program manually

There are several things that happen during the installation of a program.

First, of course, is the copying of files to the specified program folder (which is usually somewhere inside the Program Files folder). Also some files such as shared libraries (.dll files) can be copied into a folder inside Program Files called Common Files and some files such as drivers or shared libraries (again) are copied into the ‘WINDOWSSystem32′ and ‘WINDOWSSystem32drivers’ folders.

After that the installer makes some changes inside the windows registry. The windows registry is a unified place where all the settings for programs and for windows itself are stored. The installer can make changes inside the registry for several reasons. For example if a shared library needs to be registered. Or if certain types of files need to be associated with the program being installed, so that the user could open them (e.g. if you install Microsoft Word, then you will be able to open Microsoft Word documents). After this is done, a key is added to the windows registry in a place where the Windows Add/Remove tool looks for installed programs. During the installation all these operations are logged in a special file (e.g. setup.log), and the installation program usually puts that file inside the application’s folder along with the uninstaller. When a user tries to remove Virtual DJ through the Add/Remove tool, windows looks for the registered uninstaller inside the registry, and executes it. The uninstaller goes through the log file and undoes all the changes done during installation. That is, it deletes all the files that have been copied, all the registry keys the installer created etc.

However, if there is no log file, or if there is no record of the changes made to the registry the uninstaller might fail to uninstall Virtual DJ, and it will stay there untill it is removed by other means.

So if Virtual DJ won’t uninstall, how do you perform a force uninstall?

Well, if you know how to work with the windows registry, you probably can perform a manual force uninstall.

Before I go into detail about how to do this manually, I’d like to say that this is pretty advanced stuff, and if you’re not a power user, then perhaps you should consider using specialized software such as the Best Uninstall Tool which allows you to do this in just a few clicks.

If you are a power user, then let’s continue. First, let’s see how to remove the program from the list of installed programs. To do that you need to open the registry browser:

1.      Click Start and choose Run in the menu (If you’re using Windows Vista then press Win+R on your keyboard).

2.      Type regedit and hit Enter.

3.      On the left side is the registry settings tree, use it to go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionUninstall

4.      Inside that key you’ll find a lot of keys that belong to different programs. Some are named after the program’s name, others as a mix of numbers and letters that makes no sense. Look through each of them until you find one that has the key DisplayName (on the right) with your program’s name in it.

5.      Notice the key UninstallString – this key points to the uninstall program, and the log file usually resides in the same folder as that program.

6.      If you delete the key in which you’ve found the DisplayName key with the value equal to your program’s name, then your program won’t appear on the Add/Remove programs list.

7.

Some programs create new entries in the registry to store their configuration options, these entries can usually be found in the HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftware or in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARE – look for the program name or the name of the company that made the software. Don’t delete Microsoft though – that contains Windows settings as well.

Next we have to find all the files that have been copied. Open the folder in which the uninstall program should be, and look for files which are named uninstal.log or setup.log or something similar. The list of files that have been installed is inside this file; you can open it in your notepad and find all of the files that have been copied onto your system. Delete the files and you’ll get rid of the program almost fully.

Again, I’d like to stress that if you’re new to the windows registry and all of this stuff, and if you don’t feel like experimenting with your computer, then, again, please consider using either the Best Uninstall Tool or similar software to force uninstall  Virtual DJ, I do not want to be responsible for breaking your computer.
