No you didn't, I just think there isn't much anyone can suggest since your system sounds very screwed up. Have you considered reinstalling the OS? It will probably save you a lot of time in the end. Rgds, jnihil.
Oh my god. re install windows! it's real nightmare. but i think i have no other choice. anyway , thank you for your advice.
You'll get real fast with the re-install after a few goes. DriveImage has helped me a lot in this department. I used to rebuild every few months.
