you nailed it deepfried, and not just games... finance apps too

 

[NickS]

Wow.

For someone with all this important data, they should be religious with backup's and such.

 

[Eguy]

well if you actually read, you CAN'T backup some of the stuff

 

[limqareb]

just crack the damn files open so you can get them

this ones a tricky one.......hmm heres a question that ill probably get flamed for..but have you checked to see if you pc is set to the "boot from network" option in the bios

if it is, it might explain your slow boot times and windows sayign it needs them..

OR

at any time have you used those wireless cards to set up a network and forgot to free up the ports again? (some cards/routers make you manually change the ports back to unused, otherwise windows thinks the cards still there)

i did this with a bellkin router and it did pretty much the same thign when i tried to uninstall it

EDIT: i know so much about belkin i spelled their name "bellkin"

 

[NickS]

Eguy, ghost your hdd.

 

[deepfried]

o...k

any new news on the state of things eguy?

 

[Eguy]

I keep forgetting to boot into safe mode, I'll try tomarrow and report
