I am working with a user who has Windows 98 SE. When he attempts to create a backup, prior to removing Registry issues, he receives this error.

Searches on this error have been useless, and concentrate mostly on Office. Any other possible causes, or fixes ?

It would be much more useful if you stated exactly what error, and provided a screenshot if possible.

he says Error 7: Our Of Memory. it's just a simple VB error. in other words, something in the coding causes this

.

Well,
Thanks all, for the suggestions. The actual solution turned out to be simple, and ironic.

We had the user remove AOL Spyware Protection (?) (after first unblocking anything that it had blocked).

The 7 out of memory, as well as just about every other complaint... GONE !

Apologies for the double posting. The software hiccupped while I was posting. It flickered, but gave no indication of having posted, so I tried again...
