cak46 Posted May 29, 2005 CID Share Posted May 29, 2005 Go into add/remove and remove the update we added yesterday. Reboot, then try to reinstall the update again. Did it shut down normally or did it lock on shutdown last night? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spawni Posted May 29, 2005 Author CID Share Posted May 29, 2005 i uninstalled it and thought id try dc++ before installing the update again and it works my computer is having a laugh at me lol but at least dc works now but for how long noone knows cheers!

cak46 Posted May 29, 2005 CID Share Posted May 29, 2005 Before rebooting again, do a manual System Restore Point.... Just in case.... Sounds like XP is having it's way with you Good luck and as always, if it comes back, let us know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xs1 Posted May 31, 2005 CID Share Posted May 31, 2005 Sounds to me like it may be more then just "xp" if the problem returns... You may want to scan for viruses and / or spyware too. - My friend once had some spyware that did crazy things.. Youd type "google.com" and itd go straight to " top10sites" or "msn.com" and itd go to "thissitehere" . Not to mention his 5mb roadrunner was runnign about 1.3 on a good day. Some programs wouldnt open, things like that.. Even if you "believe" your systems clean it never hurts to scan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
