Installation Guide?

Jan 13, 2008

I am working on a friends computer and I feel it needs a windows reinstall.
I ran Belarc on it after I failed at downloading critical updates ( the owner uninstalled some critical updates after they lost internet connection because they thought the update was somehow involved) So I ran belarc and discovered that there are a lot of failed windows update files.
What I am mainly confused about is the way it is partitioned.
Local Drive Volumes
c: (FAT32 on drive 0) 16.75 GB 6.13 GB free
d: (NTFS on drive 0) 44.70 GB 44.67 GB free
C. Drive has Windows on it and D only has two files on it. This doesn't look right to me. So my question is What now??
I can follow easy to understand directions. I have all 6 recovery dics to work with, they don't have anything on the pc that needs to be saved. Can anyone walk me through the first steps of getting a fresh install on this??

I am having an issue installing Win XP Pro from CD & HD both. I have an 80GB Samsung HD and my 20GB Western Digital that I am using for win98se for my niece.

Installation Guide Need?

Sep 5, 2007

I've had trouble with my POS Lexmark printer and tried everything and anything I could find to fix it,taking info I found via the web. The last thing I saw, and did, was delete the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesSpooler
and the subkey DEPENDS ON SERVICE Well, after doing THAT, it not helping and not knowing that I should have backed up anything, I gave up. :banghead: Then I found another exact same used printerand bought that (glutten for punishment), I know but I have lots of ink cartridges, and they're expensive!) NOW, when I try to reinstall the printer I can't. My computer skills are as bad as my cooking skills and I need help if anyone can guide me in plain simple English (hard to find in Miami these days, plain simple English, that is!) Can I manually put this line back in the registry? Can it be put back at all? I searched on my computer and it seems it just disappeared - there's no trace of it. Nothing in the services file, I checked. And here I thought it would just go to the recycle bin I think I have the CD'S for XP if needed, but if I have to go that route, will it wipe out my existing files I have? No back up - oh, I do have a HD backup but no one has taken a few minutes to tell me how to use it. Tried doing a system restore -keep picking random / different dates, nothing worked - even tried in SAFE MODE, says it can't restore to that date (any date). Also tried doing last known good something or other in safe mode, Was suggested by someone else that I copy and save a file as a text file as XXXX.reg and then click on the file with all the codes, did as instructed and got the following when I clicked on it:Are you sure you want to add the information in C: Doc...to the registry. Put yes, then I got this message:

W32.spybot.worm Just Won't Go Away

Mar 30, 2005

I know nothing about computers but my boyfriend knows a lot and this has even stumped him. I keep getting notices about having the w32.spybot.worm on my computer. We've followed the instructions on symantec for removal, didn't work. We've formatted it by deleting the partitions, still came back. Then we did a low-level format, and it still came back. The website at symantec says it comes from Kazaa?! I don't have kazaa, and never have. I run Norton virus checks and it doesn't find it, or it says it already deleted it. I search my computer and delete all the little tftp zero byte files. They keep coming back, and I don't know what to do.

Installation Of The Guide? Effects On System Restore

Sep 30, 2010

I am confused by the wording of the warning on the MS site, http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;322756.
"The actions that this Guided Help performs cannot be undone after Guided Help is finished."
What exactly cannot be undone? The installation of the Guide? Surely it would not affect System Restore.

Used Black Vipers Startup Guide Paused Dsl Connection?

Feb 25, 2005

I've done virus/spyware etc. scans and it's all clean first of all.I used black vipers startup guide to trim down my services that start on boot and it seems to go pretty quickly and that's all fine.Then when I try double click the icon that brings up my dsl connection it pauses. There doesn't seem to be any disc activity, but when I bring the cursor to the taskbar it turns into an hourglass so obviously it's waiting for something.I've brought up task manager during this and I see that it's loading some more avg components as well as imapi.exe which appears and then disappears.

W32spybot.worm: Norton Keeps Popping Up Alert?

Dec 20, 2005

My aunt got hit with the W32spybot.worm. Nortons keeps popin up alertin her to it but says it cant remove it. Ive pulled up the removal instrustions online. Problem is she is more or less computer illiterate and since she lives on the other side of the country from me I cant fix it myself. I would like to avoid having to walk her through the removal over the phone since it deals with the registry and random file names, it would make it a pain to find. Are there any programs out that can remove it? Nortons will only do it part way so it re-installs after reboot.

Worm / Virus Has Invaded The PC/ System Works Slow?

May 17, 2005

Microsoft Windows, SpyBot, and Norton all sent a deluge of windows saying they had detected changes. SpyBot sent 7-10 warnings, one of them saying "SpyBot. Search & Destroy has detected an important registry item entry that has been changed. Catagory: System Startup global entry; Change: Value deleted; Entry: elkfqxcj; Old data: c:windowselkfqxcj.exe; [allow change][Deny change].Each of these SpyBot notices had a different entry. Since then my computer is extremely slow, freezes up when left for any time. A window pops us when opening and when changing applications titled "16 bit Windows Subsystem", saying:
C:WindowsSystem32AutoExec.NT. The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Window's applications. Choose 'close' to terminate application. [close] [ignore]
