I had a very similar problem with my old desktop. It used to crash when I played certain games. I discovered the root cause a few years later. Have you recently changed your graphics card? Somtimes, graphics drivers will leave pieces of themselves behind after removing them. This is especially …

I just heard about this Vundofix thing about two hours ago. I gave it a cursory glance- isn't it created specifically for one malware or one family of malware? Or am I missing something? (Not being sarcastic, I honestly don't know!) If you suspect your computer is infected, the first …

I've been looking into this for a long time. Something new I just found out is that ESET (The company that makes NOD32) just came out with a security suite. Check it out [url]www.eset.com[/url] "Eset Smart Security", they have a free trial. If you want to pay for your software, …

Do you get to see any white on black characters on the screen at the beginning post? Try going into setup (if you can) and making sure that your computer will boot off of CD before the hard drive. Try swapping out the monitor? See if you can slave the …

If you're just cleaning out junk files, here's a great program that will take care of that for you. [url]www.ccleaner.com[/url] It takes care of the usual places- cookies, temporary files, recycle bin- and other, more discrete places as well. To top it off, it will clean up your registry and …

Go into safemode on your computer and do a once-through with whatever antivirus/antimalware programs you have just to be sure- I can read your Hijack This log (or any) about as well as I can read Mandarin Chinese (as of right now :p ) so I'm not sure if any …

have you tried rebooting your computer?-- Dumb question, but thats what fixed it when that happened to me. If you reboot and it you're still stuck in your situation, then your problem is a little more serious. But don't panic! This shouldn't be too hard to fix. So, the best …

Hey Slapperboy! Its good to see a fellow Canadian about! For your cabling issue, I think its possible, but it would be expensive and likely not give you too much of a performance boost over some higher end CAT cable unless you're seriously bottlenecking your network. But, I'm no expert …

You probably want to ask this under windows software instead of windows vista :p I think in itunes you can go edit>preferences>advanced>keep itunes music organized I'm not entirely sure what it did, but I suppose its worth a shot- no harm came of it. Good luck, --The Comodore

Try disabling your active protection- antivirus, antispyware, maybe firewall- (it may be a good idea to disconnect from the internet) and try again. Some active protection silently does not allow some things to install, thinking its malware- a false positive. You can also try disabling all unnecessary background programs by …

Hello, I've been trying to set up a Knoppix live CD for troubleshooting help, but every time I try and use it, it tells me that the "Knoppix filesystem not found" "Dropping you to a (very limited) shell". I'm very new to linux (I just installed opensuse on an old …

Okay, okay, first things first. I know I misspelled my name, and I feel bad! :p Although, it does take from Comodo, a very good computer security company.... Anyways, about me... I was born in Toronto, Canada, moved to Boston, MA for a while, then wound up in Aliso Viejo, …

Good to have you, Scott. You're not alone, I'm new here too :p All the best, --The Comodore

I'm sorry no one seems to be helping you. Lets see what I can think of. Do you still have your CD you used to install your OS? Is it windows XP or do you have a copy of windows XP (service pack 2?) Then head to [url]www.ubcd4win.com[/url] (on another …

Hello Juan, I'm a little confused by your question but I'll answer you as best I can. You can already boot off of any windows CD, its just best to boot off of the same version as the machine in question is already running- if you're going to be troubleshooting. …
