Q1. I installed Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.0 and when i tried to open pdf files it is unable to open it.. instead it shows Error Message "Rundll error". same thing for Acrobat reader 4.05, but it works fine for 3.0 what may be the problem??

Q2. Many times the windows explorer will display the error message indicating "explorer caused an invalid page fault" and closed the window. how to solve this problem??

#1 It seems tobe an incompatibility issue when running anything higher than 3.0 you should just continue using 3.0

#2 In Windows Millennium, use an Emergency Boot Disk to boot the computer to MSDOS mode Without CDROM Support At the A:\ Prompt, type Ren c:\explorer.exe explorer.old, and then press ENTER Restart the computer.
