i tried 5 different restore points (i removed ccc 9.9 and installed ccc 9.10 at that time) up to the point where i started removing the traces manually and none of them worked. would it make a difference to try the system restore with the system restore option inside the safe mode boot menu...

no, since i didnt really expect that to become so bad. now i think system restore wont go anymore since there were too many installations (failed of course, but still) done afterwards.

im using win xp pro sp3 32bit & win 7 ultimate 32bit on my hp 8510p notebook with an intel 82566MM ethernet adapter and until some days ago everything worked fine. i prefer using the original intel drivers instead of those offered by hp for my notebook, as these often are a bit outdated. on win...

ok, but could that affect any programs? because the os in its present state is from ca. sept. 08, and i first installed winxp sp3 with all its updates, then office 03 with all its updates, and then all the other software like photoshop, games etc.. also, all the new drivers (from chipset to...

my notebook runs perfectly except that some 2 months ago something happened that until now results in a microsoft visual c++ runtime library runtime error (explorer.exe) every time i right-click on an image file for the first time (afterwards not anymore). now i read through several articles...

under startup these of those 5 are listed: "C:\Program Files\Windows Defender\MSASCui.exe" -hide (but it appears in the taskbar, probably because it tells me that i dindt run a full scan for a while - theres this exclamation mark) C:\Program Files\Razer\Habu\razerhid.exe "C:\Program Files\ATI...

thank you, im using automatic login. logging out and logging back in solved the problem. now i have to see what i can do to prevent this from happening when booting the system again, since i dont wanna turn off automatic login. maybe someone could find out when seeing what icons actually appear...

as i already said.. also, the problem isnt that they get hidden behind that < arrow and can be unhidden by clicking on that arrow left of the taskbar, but they dont appear at all, neither shown, nor hidden in the taskbar, although set to be shown in ccc, control panel (volume) etc.

since some 1-2 months my taskbar acts a bit strangely when booting up. first i thought it was due to the installation of catalyst 9.12, but after uninstalling it (also cleaning using DH driver cleaner) and booting and reinstalling it, and also after a clean installation of 9.13 the problem...

thank you very much - of course i didnt delete those entries because i was expecting it not to be safe. generally i also only use ccleaner and nsw, nothing else. just tried that because there were many entries like "ec6bx1cz80" etc. which i was not sure which app they belong to and since i had...

i just downloaded glary registry repair 3.0 (Glary Utilities | Glarysoft) because i uninstalled some apps and i think i had some traces of a spyware and made a complete registry scan and now im wondering about 20 problems found as obsolete software. these are entries in HKCU/software/ which...

i solved it, You can no longer access the CD drive or the DVD drive, or you receive an error message after you remove a CD recording program or a DVD recording program in Windows XP: "error code 31" thanks for your advices

i looked at hp's drivers and first installed the one found there, then the newer one from intel, like i had it before this happened. everythings ok now with the chipset drivers. running system restore would be last resort since i think i should be able to solve the problem directly and i want to...

i just tried a driver update app (driver genius professional edition) in order to see whether there are some updated drivers for devices i cannot find drivers for or dont know where to look and it found a chipset driver (intel_inf_9101012). i ran that update and since it didnt tell me that my...

ok thanks. i have sp3 right now - shall i slipstream it with the installation cd? is it possible, or sp2 only, since all the instructions only explain how to do it with sp2. could there problems occur after repairing a winxp sp3 installation with a sp2 sliptreamed winxp cd? i hope a repair...
