I Finally Found the Sollution!!!

For weeks now I have been downloading and redowloading, running end re running the spyware, virus, and trojan tools with no success! I tried everything and nothing worked. All the suggestions here and elsewhere for solving the problems were not helping and I was ready to throw in the towel and buy a new pc. Then I read that certain spyware may cause the automatic download and installation of Service Pack 2 installation to stall. I went to the Sp2 download page for profesional users and manually downloaded the service pack 2 (which took most of last night with all the problems my pc has been having,) and have finally successfully corrected all that was wrong!!! I have now re-booted repeately with no more of the same problems resurfacing on re-boot! Iv'e successfully installed and run all the Major Geeks recomended protections against spyware, adware, virus, and trojan, and my PC is again running like new - or actually even better than when new!!!!!

My sound is even back... something I thought I had permanently deleted in all my futil attempts to fix my pc, so I can again play music, voice chat, record CD's...! Files and web pages now open as fast as lightning, instead of taking 5 minutes each or freezing and having to restart, my mouse and scrolling again work perfectly, I can open more than one window or file at a time, I was able to successfully run avg, spybot, and all the other utilities without them freezing in the middle, and booting is no longer and hour long process! I also love the new information bar that SP2 provides for the option to download a pop up if so desired!

Here's the link I found to get to the SP2 download and install it manually instead of automatically, which I went ahead and performed without using the automatic update method and without being able to clean my pc, but it worked for me

I hope it will for some others at thier wits end, who have been having the problems I was as I have been reading on numerous forums. Here is where I found the info that convinced me to go ahead and manually downlaod SP2 instead of patiently waiting for it to install automatically as recommended: http://windows.about.com/library/weekly/aa040810a.htm

 

Glad you got everything working!!
