Turn Off Error Reporting
Info:
When Windows XP crashes or hits a snag, it usually displays an error message
and asks for permission to report the problem to Microsoft via the Internet. To
prevent these messages from bothering you, turn off the error-reporting feature:
1. Right-click the My Computer icon on your desktop. If this icon is not available, then click the Start button in the lower-left corner of Windows and right-click My Computer. If you can’t find the My Computer icon anywhere, do the following:
a. Right-click in the empty space on your desktop.
b. Select Properties.
c. A window opens. Click the Desktop tab.
d. Near the bottom of the window, click the Customize Desktop button.
e. Another window will open. On the General tab, beneath the words Desktop Icons, place a checkmark in the My Computer box.
f. Click the OK button.
g. You are returned to the previous screen. Click the Apply button.
h. Click the OK button.
i. The My Computer icon appears on your desktop. Double-click it.
2. Select Properties.
3. A window opens. Click the Advanced tab.
4. Click the Error Reporting button located in the lower-right corner of this window.
5. Select the option to Disable Error Reporting. If you still want to be notified when serious errors occur, then put a checkmark in the But Notify Me When Critical Errors Occur box. If you want to disable all types of error reporting so that you never see any error messages, then remove the checkmark from this box.
