I downloaded avast, uninstalled and reinstalled it to get the computer
working. I did a virus scan and malwarebytes both found a couple of
items. Since then the computer locked up again. I used safe mode and
msconfig again for diagnostic startup which got the computer working
except for:
When i enabled everything it told me access denied
I tried computer - manage - services to enable avast (amongst others)
but i get error: need to be administrator even though i was logged in as
administrator.
Without uninstalling and reinstalling again what can be done?
Thanks,
J.
found solution for: (it was under local machine - msconfig)
I ran msconfig to do a selective start-up (all programs/services
stopped) - computer was slow and no programs ran unless in safe mode.
Now I have 2 lines (was 4 but got rid of two in regedit):
Startup and command are nine squareboxes plus ...
the location is software\microsoft\windowsnt\currentversion\windows
i was able to delete the ones in
hkcu\software\microsoft\windowsnt\currentversion\windows because that is
current user but what is the other lines?
thanks,
