| First off - what sort of problems? If you can't get into Safe Mode (by pressing F8 during WinXP startup), there's a chance that the OS has been hacked/damaged. Stuff to try first (@ssuming you can get into WinXP) 1. Clear out all the temp files, cache, history, etc. 2. Use HijackThis to determine what's running and what sort of spyware may have been installed. HijackThis can be used to inactivate a spyware program that runs at startup. 3. Run AV and spyware (recommend spybot) to try and search out all the nasties If none of the above works, you may be looking at a clean install (i.e. reformat and install everything). ---------------------------------------------- Work is for people who don't know how to surf Gateway Performance 1800 - P4 1.8gz, 512mb RAM, nVidia 5200; SB Live Value; Windows XP Professional, Photoshop CS2, Nikon D200 and D100 |

| Not sure what you mean by "all kinds of stuff on your screen when you start in safe mode". Best recommendation is to consider doing a clean install. Back up all your data, and do a complete reformat/reinstall of WinXP and your programs. Get a good antivirus/antispam suite (hint: Don't choose Norton - it's a resource pig and not all that effective) to protect yourself. ---------------------------------------------- Work is for people who don't know how to surf Gateway Performance 1800 - P4 1.8gz, 512mb RAM, nVidia 5200; SB Live Value; Windows XP Professional, Photoshop CS2, Nikon D200 and D100 |

| Sounds like you either have a virus or have been hacked. My best recommendation is to do a clean install. In the future, make sure you're using a reliable antivirus, firwall and spam protection. ---------------------------------------------- Work is for people who don't know how to surf Gateway Performance 1800 - P4 1.8gz, 512mb RAM, nVidia 5200; SB Live Value; Windows XP Professional, Photoshop CS2, Nikon D200 and D100 |
