Open Device Manager

Reboot to Normal Mode - Windows will reinstall the required drivers -
hopefully curing your problem.

I tried this and got pretty good results, except the reinstall
couldn't find 4 .dll's, a .bin, a .drv and a .vxd.


And the other thing I noticed is that Sistray was running,
along with Systray. There was an unfamiliar icon with an
SIS on it that appeared at bottom right with the other icons.
I ran McAfee, but it didn't detect any trojan...

SIS comes from your motherboard, if you click on it, I suspect you will
find it has to do with your onboard video card. You uninstall CCleaner and
leave McAfee on your machine. Amazing.




More likely the Sound card, Alias, since that's what he just reinstalled.
