What is the cause of getting a corruption file error on a computer in the middle of installing a new Windows Vista Partition. Can anyone help me please?

Since then after each anti virus scan I receive the same message including a notification that the system has successfully recovered from a serious problem. The advisory is that my hard drive has serious problems and that I should re-boot, backup my files etc. All re-boots have been uneventful.

Do I have a serious problem in the making, or did the Trojans leave something behind? Unfortunately I can't find the name of the Trojan in my quarantine folder.]]> Mon, 07 Sep 2009 23:41:59 +0000 http://www.cfra.com/computes_show/forum/index.php?showtopic=40231 http://www.cfra.com/computes_show/forum/index.php?showtopic=40068 I then reformatted the card and used it again.

It's Monday and those pics are not anywhere- external, internal or upside down!! They are not in my recycle bin.
I know I can use a program (i have Undelete) to retrieve any pics not overwritten on my memory card- but I need all the pics!!

Any idea how the pics got missing in action? Could it have been a virus?

I recall that you can reset your computer time to before an event happened to retrieve data - would this apply in this case?

AMD Athlon 64 3700+ running at 2.2 GHz
2GB RAM
BFG GeForce 9600 512 OC using driver version 186.08

Runs smooth so far. I installed my game Prey and had to operate it as Windows XP (SP3) so I'll be checking for updates.

Also installed Open Office 3.1, Nero 9, Avast anti-virus, & Foxit pdf reader. Firefox 3.5 beta, Opera 9.64 and Thunderbird. All work well so far and except for Prey I have not had to make anything XP compatible.

I like it so far. I haven't spent too much time with Vista though my wife & daughters pc have it.

Anyone else have thoughts, etc?

On the weekend I changed the black cartridge & have not been able to use it since -- I figured it might need to run the test once or twice, but not 6-8 times!

I've tried using a different cartridge & have re-positioned the colour cartridge too, but to no avail.

The machine is about 3 years old, past the warrenty period, sigh, and gets only a moderate amount of use.]]> Wed, 08 Apr 2009 21:52:29 +0000 http://www.cfra.com/computes_show/forum/index.php?showtopic=36130 http://www.cfra.com/computes_show/forum/index.php?showtopic=35704 I noticed IE 8 is now available. Is IE 8 have the same look as IE 7 and is it just as easy to work as IE 7 or is harder? I'm not to good with computers so I don't want to download it if hard to use then IE 7?]]> Thu, 26 Mar 2009 15:00:29 +0000 http://www.cfra.com/computes_show/forum/index.php?showtopic=35704 http://www.cfra.com/computes_show/forum/index.php?showtopic=35619
I have a lap top for which has slowed down quite a bit. Sometimes it takes forever to do a simple function. I also get "low memory" message at least a couple times a day. I even disable a whole lot of none essential start up program.

What is the best software out there to do a full cleanup? Here is what I have tried.

- Adaware
- CCleaner Latest version
- Spybot Search & Destroy
- Uniblue Speed up My PC Suite & Uniblue Drive Scanner.
- Revo Uninstaller

I don't want to have to do a format on my work laptop as I always loose good information.

BTW my laptop is a Compaq Presario 2100 running Windox XP Home Edotion Service Pack 2 & it is 7 years old. I already changed my HD two years ago.

Thank you in advance for your help
