John, Norton in service is too important to me, and removingJohn said:Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) used by scanners, cameras and probably
your webcam, this is why I asked you to *completely* remove these
devices and all their associated software from your machine. In the
batch file the line:
sc config stisvc start= Disabled
will (should have) set the Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) to
*disabled*. A disabled service cannot start, trying to start it will
throw an error. Something in your startup applications is changing the
start status of the service an re-enabling it, these things don't change
by themselves alone. Run the batch file again to reset the start values
of the services then do a clean boot, don't reboot after you run the
batch file because the startup applications will just change it again!
Run the batch file then do the necessary steps to clean boot then reboot.
You mean Norton stuff? That will be the next one to get its head
chopped off! It shouldn't run if you do the clean boot properly.
John
it completely and reinstalling could be a forever task. We
have to either clear it or chop its legs off, and I propose
a test that will meet you more than half way. As you know,
I can always make more clones, even though it takes some time.
Let's take my test clone and remove all of Norton's A-V right
from Add/Remove. I just have to remember never to go online on
that system.
I'll take the system as it is now, UNinstall NAV,do your
ServicesStart.vbc again, and autorunsc.exe, and let's see
what happens. I'll start that right now.
