Allright, i have a problem, not too big but its a problem. Well recently, i tried to go into "msconfig" and the window for it opens but it closes right away by itself, after i run it, it closes right after. Same thing happens with the Windows Task Manager (ctrl alt delete), opens but then closes. If anyone can help me with this, please tell me. Thank You!

I think if you right click, properties and then you can uncheck the close after start option that is checked automatically.

Agreed. Post in the right forum. Keep this crap out of OT, dammit! Not that it's not fun to troubleshoot and fix problems, but jesus people. There is a place for it and it is NOT HERE.

How dare you un-hijack this thread!

:)

Boot with a clean CD of Windows and install into a new folder.

That worked wonders for me when some spam site grabbed my default home page and would NOT let go.
