maynardvdm Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 Hi AdvancedSetup said you might get that message and just reboot again. Did you reboot the pc? Quote We are all members helping other members.

AdvancedSetup Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 The box was supposed to only last for a second and go away. Then just reboot your computer. Then go to this location. Windows Update Some times it takes a while to find and fix a problem when using a forum. Fixing the system while I'm sitting at it would be much faster, but we don't have that luxury. Just hang in there and try to relax and hopefully we'll get you going again soon. Quote Need help with your computer problems? Then why not join Free PC Help.

Seth Posted March 27, 2008 Posted March 27, 2008 Hi Ony, If the computer still has the problem, then see if the internet is ok in "Safe Mode with Networking". To access that mode, turn on the computer and begin tapping F8. That will bring up a boot menu where you can choose that mode. Everything will look larger in that mode, but will return to normal after testing the internet and restarting. Quote Need help with your computer problems? Then why not join Free PC Help.

AdvancedSetup Posted March 27, 2008 Posted March 27, 2008 That's great news ONY Thank you for the kind words and for posting a follow-up feedback post to let us know your system is up and running properly again. NOTE:!! Don't forget to go back and check for Windows Updates again, sometimes you need to go back a couple times, it depends on what is on your computer. Also turn on the Automatic Windows Updates and set it to update your computer for you at some time period where the computer will be on but you won't be using it.
