Malicious Or Just Windows It Is

Oct 17, 2004

I ran LiveUpdate on Norton Systemworks 2003. It updated LI only, and asked me to reboot. I did. I also, following some advice I found on TSG during a Google search, switched the Speed Disk service to "manual", as it was causing my HD to work overtime. As it was nearly 1am by then, I went off to bed. My system is protected by ZoneAlarm, Spybot resident, Norton Systemworks with auto updates. I do, however, have a broadband connection and leave the system on at night. I'm running Windows 2000 Pro. Monitor hadn't powersaved. Rightclick had stopped working, clicking on anything in my startbar had no effect, except "start", but that would only bring up the 4 items that would be above 'programs', and I couldn't click on them either. So, I rebooted, and everything worked fine. I was on the system for around 1/2 hour,I went downstairs for breakfast, and when I returned I found it in the same state.

There's an e-mail doing the rounds inviting recipients to download SP3 for XP and on the face of it, giving a web address of windows.com etc. On close examination, the second "w" in Windows is actuall two "v"s and anyone visiting this site is likely to get a nasty surprise. That's why I'm not posting any links and also why I'm forwarding thios posting to a Mod who may care to make it Sticky

Corrupt Installation & Repair Installation Hangs?

Jul 4, 2006

I started up the computer, watched the BIOS detect the RAM, hard drive, etc, and then was greeted by a blank screen instead of the Windows boot screen. It proceeded though, and after a few seconds flashed to another black screen, this time displaying the cursor. I'm guessing this is the logon screen, but nothing displays but the cursor. (Note that the video card and monitor are both fine...I tried swapping them out just in case.)

Apr 24, 2010

I am trying to install SP3 on a Windows XP Home (currently SP2). The installation is hung on "Finishing Installation - Performing cleanup". I downloaded the installer from the MS Download center (it didn't appear in Windows Update). Is it safe to turn off the computer (since I can't close the installer), or should I let it sit for a while longer (it's been hanging for a few hours)?

Pro SP2 Installation

Apr 18, 2008

I tried to install XP Pro SP2 on my laptop and somehow my product key was no good. I first reformated my hard drive and Windows installation begun but I had to get out since the product key was invalid.I finally noticed I had the wrong disk. When I finally found the right disk with the right key, the old installation kept on coming back where I left it. How can I start all over again, with the reformating and reinstallation from scratch? I really don't know how to do this. Is there a special command at reboot? Do I have to put the CD in or not? I'm not sure anymore since it's been years since I've tried this.
