You've been posting a series of problems with your system, and what you've
tried to fix those problems. Are things getting better, or getting worse?
You've been starting new threads, even though the series of problems are all
connected, some clearly caused by what you've done to correct earlier
problems. At this point, if you want a usable system either
#1. save your data and do a clean install
OR
#2. take your system in to a good repair shop
OR
#3. get some knowledgeable person to come over to your system and help.
The more you try 'fixes' that you don't understand to problems that you
don't understand, the worse your system gets. That is true for anyone who
works with computers. Saving data, wiping the hard drive(s), and doing a
clean install of the operating system and applications is the last resort;
BUT it does NOT require that you understand the process or diagnose the
problem UNLESS the problem is actually hardware failure. Fixing a hardware
problem DOES require a proper diagnosis of the problem.
If you feel you are making progress, keep at it. If you don't feel you are
making progress, then it is time for #1, #2, or #3. Not every problem is
amenable to given and take in a newsgroup. Especially if you continue to
fragment the discussion by starting new threads.
