Windows not starting up completely, no start menu, no task manager
by Guest Jim 5coat- 2 replies
- 179 views
Had a virus attack and have cleaned it using McAfee including a full scan in DOS safe mode. No infected files are on the disk based on the scans. When I start the PC in “normal mode” the desktop displays but the start menu nor the task bar display. Even when I use the windows key. Right clicks on the desk top do not work. I normally do not have icons on my desktop so I do not know if other programs work. In the safe mode I have attempted to run windows explorer and the system says in can not find explorer.exe even though I can see it in the windows directory using the DOS dir command. I have attempted to do the sfc /scannow process but got …

Video is red
by Guest Rob- 12 replies

Windows XP Home with all service packs and updated. All videos play with a dull reddish image, regardless of player used (Windows MP, VLC, Media Player Classic). The preview in Windows Explorer is correctly coloured. Videos play fine on the same machine in a Linux installation, and also on an XP guest installation in VirtualBox hosted on the Linux. Video also was fine in the old main XP installation before reinstalling. I believe the fault has been there since reinstallation, but cannot be sure.

I hope I can make myself clear. I have about 25 icons on my desktop. The first several work fine when I double click on them. However they look to be super imposed with another desktop icon. When I double click the other icons nothing happens. When I right click it does not give me the option to open the icon. Thanks!!

Windows XP immediately reboots after login
by Guest Sheila- 1 reply

PC had indicated viruses last week and tech came and cleaned it up. However, apparently there is no antivirus program installed. This week noticed appearance of Antivir08 which I thought was AV put on by tech but found out it is malware. Shortly thereafter PC cannot be booted other than safe mode because after Windows login PC immeidately reboots. I was able to get into Safe Mode and install Malawarebytes Anti-Malware (as suggested in another forum) which indicated it removed Antivir08 but the reboot problem persists. Any ideas how to solve this? Since safe mode is only option to start successfully, I cannot get to Windows updates or other installs as …
