    When I went to install Windows XP on my slow laptop, it said that I needed more RAM. So instead I took the visuals off of XP and put them onto my Windows 2000, now when it starts it says beginning memory dump, then restarts. I used Tuneup Utilities to change the visuals. My Laptop only starts in safe mode, and I uninstalled the program to free up space, but I cannot reinstall it in safe mode. I only used the Folder Icon Visuals.

    The only thing that i can think of if you cannot get windows to go back to normal is to repair windows by using the windows 2000 cd.

    Well, I know that it says that BECAUSE I have the folders set to that, I just need to know how to edit the file icons. I dont know how old but it is a Toshiba Satelite Pro CD400x i think.

    Download and install EVEREST. It will tell you everything about your laptop.

    Everest Home Edition. www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4181
    When you run EVEREST, Click on "Computer" icon, then on "Summary", then on "Report" (at top menu), then on "Quick Report Summary", down to "Plain text". Save it to a file, as whatever name you like, (maybe PCddmmyy--with ddmmyy being the current date). Then it can be posted for all to see.

    Have you considered what XxMorpheusxX suggested, repairing Windows?
