I think windows is going downhill for me

[stangeroo]

lately, alot of wierd error messages have popped up saying explorer.exe needs to close, ccAPP.exe or something like that did not shutdown. Photoshop doesnt open, and I cant install half life it says
C\Windows\system32\autoexe.NT cannot launch in DOS or something like that. It seems like its getting worse, could I have possibly messed up or deleted parts of windows from running tons of spybot/adaware stuff and removing alot of programs/ending the processes. What should i do. I am thinking of buying a external HD enclosure and making an External HD, backing up everything then formatCing

try disabling norton and try installing half-life again

This happened to me a while back. Get a hold of a new AUTOEXEC.NT file (from a friend or from the net) and copy it to your C:\Windows\System32 directory.
