Hi,
I'm not sure what else I can do to uninstall McAfee. I went through the proper link etc. Is there a way of telling whether it is this?
You're right - when the computer goes into sleep or hibernation mode and avast isn't installed, I can usually open the notebook or press the power button & it wakes up. But when avast is installed, this doesn't happen.
During a perid of inactivity, the computer screen turns black (apologies for my lack of terminology!) and when avast isn't installed, I can just touch the mousepad and the screen reappears. However, when avast is installed, this doesn't happen. The screen stays black and I have to hold down the power key to turn the computer off completely.
Thank you for any help! It's so frustrating!
