What is the model number of your Dimension computer?
What operating system is it running?
How long have you had it?
Does it say "Run Time Error 62
Program will now close" or something similar to this? Give exact/complete error message.
What other windows are opening? Please explain...

Hi
It is a Dimension 2400 model running Win XP home edition and it was bought the 22nd of August , the exact error is ::
RUN TIME ERROR '62
INPUT PAST END OF LIFE
There are no other windows open when this error appears , when the pc is turned on and the desktop appears then this message appears. It doesnt say program will close . I have just been closing the error box and carrying on .......

I would suggest you get on the phone to Dell's technical support people and have them help you fix this. Lot's of smart people on this forum that will help but get a call into Dell anyway so you have an issue report on record with them before your 30 day return policy is up.
The Run Time errors that I have run into are usually associated with errors in Visual Basic code or a corrupt VB file (just a guess).
INFORMATION From Microsofts Knowledge Base
The error "Input past end of file" (error code 62) can occur when you use the INPUT # statement in a loop to iteratively read a fixed number of values from each line of a sequential (text) file, and one of the lines in the file has the wrong number of values. This happens because INPUT # reads across line boundaries. For example, when there are too few values on a line, INPUT # continues reading values from the next line. This leaves too few values on the next line for the following INPUT # iterations. When reading the last line in the file, the error occurs.
Here is a link to Microsoft Knowledge Base that references your error message
