ok , on reboot, the upates started automatically , but i lost net connection at 72% , but i think they will be fine when i try later, because thats the first time in 20 that i haven't manually started them. Actually i just looked an windows has found 10 more . looks like what was backed up is not anymore.

When i open browser IE, its frozen straight away, its taken me over 1hr  with one browser window open to get here. With my limited knowlege i just looked at task manager, and see msmsgs.exe in there. i read its a bug, but i dont want to remove it until i hear from a true gigamegabrain  8). Is there anything else in there thats naughty?(see attatchments,  overlaps by 4)

cheers!

Download Mike Lins Startup control panel from here http://www.mlin.net/StartupCPL.shtml
Use the exe version
Then following the screen shots on the download page Disable all with the exception of Avast
Reboot and then let me know how the computer behaves

wow... thats pretty ok.perfect infact so far. not 1 freeze!! yay! ;D.

Its kinda common sense though really innit. (if u know whats suppose to be there)... the more thats running the sloowwer it gets, could be compared to ones brain!!

TAsk manager still shows alot of processes though, is that right? i unchecked all apart from avast in mike LIns startup control as it said, then just rebooted.

ta so much Essexboy, oh and Pondus too.

The thing to be aware of is that all programmers think that their software should run at every boot... Wrong

Is all running properly now ?

This is all I have running on my windows 7 and 8 systems

I suppose ,for , example, i just downloaded FdM as u avise, but left the box checked to start up on boot, i didnt really think, like clearing cache etc too. It just builds up  then u have a giant slug pc. Its about pc management  really isnt it, but i wasnt aware of the simple checks u show me above till now.

thanks again. god, you geek to go, then avast in ya spare time, wots ya night job ! :)

Try this as a weekly preventative maintenance schedule and you will be surprised at the results

First :

Run TFC as this will remove a lot

Clear Cache/Temp Files
Download TFC by OldTimer to your desktop
  • Please double-click TFC.exe to run it. (Note: If you are running on Vista, right-click on the file and choose Run As Administrator).
  • It will close all programs when run, so make sure you have saved all your work before you begin.
  • Click the Start button to begin the process. Depending on how often you clean temp files, execution time should be anywhere from a few seconds to a minute or two.  Let it run uninterrupted to completion.
  • Once it's finished it should reboot your machine. If it does not, please manually reboot the machine yourself to ensure a complete clean.
Second :

Defragment the drive using either the inbuilt windows one or a third party one

OK new subject netframework

This could be a .Net problem, so we will need to uninstall and then re-install .Net framework

 Download Dontetfx cleanup tool. zip to your desktop
Unzip the tool
Run the exe file
Click throught the EULA popups
Select All Version


Once done reboot the computer
Download then run the Net 4.0 installer from here
Then install
Reboot and try Updates  again please

came bacK!

2 things:

1. is the in built WINdOWS defragmenter located : START - ACCESSORIES -SYSTEM TOOL- dISC dEFRAGMENTER  ??  or not.

2. i am currently running . NET framework cleaning utility, its been going for about 25mins, seems a long time...... ok i waited and it finished. i rebooted, then downloaded .net framework 4 , and tried to install it, and it failed. see log.

 i  saved the webpage log that was produced to desktop but only way know to attatch was to copy to notepad. says i have more avanced version of .net framework installed , but its turned off, plus other stuff.

Sorry to sounD thick, but i cant find TEMP FOLDER. i know (well i think so)its C:Documents an settings. I go thru:

start - C: - Documents an settings ... then theres no temp folder? now if i am looking for it WHERE EXACTLY  do I type in the folder name to open it or search for it? {its where the propor log is stored}.
