fbi gui manager

I have a HP laptop pavilion 2500 that had a hard drive failure. I replaced the drive and used the restore disks from HP. Something called FBI Gui manager keeps coming up. What do I do to stop it? Thank you.

 

FBI GUI Manager stands for File Based Installer Graphic User Interface Manager, while it runs your computer will restart itself several times it will take a few hours what it does is it installs all the hp software that comes with you computer and also makes an image of your hard drive this includes windows so that if you ever need to reformat again you may possibly i say this cause its really a 50/50 chance of being able to do it by turning on your computer and continuously hitting the f11 key this brings up the image that the file based installer makes which 50 percent of the time lets you reformat your hard drive with out a disk this is good if you have lost your disk but it doesn't always.

 

I did the restore last night - it seemed to be in a perpetual loop. I shut down normally (even though the FBI GUI manager box was still there (but seemingly inactive) I just turned the laptop back on and the FBI GUI box is still there and files are unzipping. Any idea how long this should take? Last night it was working for over 2 hours.

 

sorry halo was in a rush forget. it will take a fair amount of time as too how long on estimate i am not sure.

 

Gloozit,
I had gotten to the point where I was killing the two FBI programs (one in the apps section of task manager and on in the processes section). I then went into the all programs list to look for the FBI folder (I even did a search for FBI) and couldn't find it. Is it under another folder? Any ideas what else to look for?

Thanks,

 

It was in the Systems folder. Thanks for all the help. I am now trying to figure out the drivers and keeping my fingers crossed. Thanks for your help.

 

Thought I had it last night - had the internet and everything. Rebooted this morning and it crashed. I'll try to stop the process earlier this time.

 

after you log onto windows, click start,search/run- type msconfig, a small box should open,click on the tab that says boot, there should be something that says no gui boot ,check that,now click tab that says startup, scroll down until you see RUNFBI, uncheck that box and hit apply,thats it ..it should no longer see that program pop up at startup
