Sorry didnt get back here quicker, but I have done all the unchecking the box things exactly as mentioned. As for the virus checker I know I shouldnt just rely on the Windows checker as this dosnt run constanly but I do try to use quite regular. So... I unchecked all the boxes and the PC has...

I am doing this one step at a time. so I have unchecked the 3 items Bahco has suggested. I have now just restarted my computer and have this message on the screen (which I have left there for now until I hear back). the message: SYSTEM CONFIGURATTION UTILITY YOU HAVE USED THE SCU TO MAKE...

I have at last sorted out the Canon Zoombrowser thing. The pics hadnt gone I found them in the canon folder in explorer and copied to my flash stick. I then reinstalled the CD. It worked perfectly and all the files were still there, and as they are on my stick I also have copy in case anything...

Ok I have done the MSCONFIG thing. I went to netsquirrel.com and this gave me a bit more of an insight and it didnt look too scary. In Start Up these are boxes that a checked. readsched MSASCui Reader_sl iTunesHelper qttask CorelIOMonitor jusched Coral Photo Downloader msnmsgr ctfmon...

No the index service wasnt started. I will at that just at the moment this PC working faster than ever. this is what i dont understand. do you think its not my PC and its something to do with my internet connection.

If I install the zoombrowser installation CD will that not write over all the photos that are there now or will they be ok.

Have you all lost your voices ?????

To Humbug, I didnt get to defraging last night as I had the other problem (see my other post), I waited ages, I have lots of patience and never click click click, I just let it run but it didnt sort itself out so I CTRL/DELETE and closed my Canon program down like that. By then I had had enough...

Last night I shut down my zoombrowser because it was locking, no problems with that and carried on working on PC. Tonight I have gone to open my Canon Zoombrowers programe and obviously something has now happened as it is saying I can 'restore'. I clip to restore and it zips through various...

I'm afraid I was right, I do only have 248 MB of RAM. And I think this is the processor 'Celeron(R) CPU 2.20GHz'. If the RAM is the memory size, then I have loads of memory left so why do I have to add more RAM. I always run the Disk Clean up utility, but I havnt defragmented for a while as...

Apologies if I upset anyone but this is frustrating. I dont know if I have the RAM thing right, were do I find this. I'm asking because the 512MB seems to ring a bell. We havnt really added much at all to the PC it is used mostly for internet a bit of homework, MS WORD, MS WORKS, CANON PHOTO...

I think thats a bit of an exageration. Just at the minute it is working perfect, later on it could suddenly throw 'A TANTRUM'. There must be a reason why it does this. If there was a problems with RAM etc etc then why would it not be slow all the time. The worst one is when you just switch it...

To Neo, Ahhhhhhh. I cant reinstall windows, I would be terrified to do that. To Mr Humbug, I use Microsoft Antivirus, the one where you go to their site and tell it to do a full scan/check etc, this can take about 8 hours so usually let it do this overnight. I know this isnt running in the...

From switching on my computer it takes about half an hour before you are up and running. You darnt try to connect to the internet as you will wait about 5 minutes for each page to turn over. It does this every single day. I have run virus checks, clean up, defrags, removed some programs...

Well I must commend you all on your replies and helping to type questions into Google. I really didnt know you could do that. What a funny mood we were all in last night. Ok I know you can buy these things but I just wanted to see if anyone else has had silverfish, and how can I find where...

In my understairs cupboard I have started to notice silverfish. I only ever see an odd one or two and obviously as these are nocturnal I only see at night. I have since (only because I couldnt sleep one night) noticed them in my little sitting room next to the cupboard. THEN, and this is what...

Firstly that was too long a Subject title for anyone to be able to understand what I really need to know. Secondly I am in a bungalow and there is no problem getting onto roof. I have a tv aeriel with lead that goes from the roof down to front of house into front living room. I want to put a...

My hoover has a little brush on it, should I give it a light hoover? I know I moved the base yesterday to check the leads etc so maybe I have disrupted something. And by the way that was big THANK YOU its just that you cant hear me.

No thats me. What do you mean 'You've probably knocked some flush into the path of some fan blades'. Is this something I can put right?

My fault, I rambled a bit in post just before I did forget to say thanks. So thank you all, I cannot believe this thing has NOT disconnected. Does anyone know anything about dripping taps???? I will of course put this in the correct forum. thanks again. :wink:
