Hi!
Recently my cousin has bought a new Asus K53E notebook. She brought it to me for further "manipulation"
I installed her some programs (ccleaner, opera, irfanview, winamp, defraggler, 7-zip and k-lite codecpack). Than I installed avast 5 and updated it. And then it began. The system would stop responding, only the mouse worked but I could not run any application, ctrl+alt+del didn't work and I could only hard boot it. I thought it was Avast 6 that messed with the system, so I uninstalled it and reinstalled Avast 5 and only updates viruses database but not the program. It didn't help, system hanged again. I figured it could be Windows Update that was working and installing updates, so I uninstalled Avast, downloaded and installed system updates, then turned off WU, ran a virus scan wirh McAfee Stinger and finally reinstalled Avast - it did not help. The system started fine, but the minute I double-clicked Avast icon on the desktop to enter control center, all freezed again. Really, I have no idea what to do anymore. I don't know what else could be the reason. I might add that I tried the solutions I saw on forums, like checking the option of loading Avast after system servieces, but to no result. I have myself an ASUS K72J notebook with Win7 x64 HP and Avast 5 installed and never had any problem of that sort, but now I'm kinda afraid to upgrade it to version 6!
Help!!
