problems starting up
when trying to start my computer in normal mode it will
flash to the screen with the windows logo and then quickly change to a blue screen with a message that goes something like: "Windos ran into a problem while initializing device Configmg. windows protection error. You need to restart your computer." It might also say "system halted" in there somewhere, I can't remember and I'm writing this from another computer. In safe mode I have run the AWS Shredder, Adware, and McAfee Virus Scan along with Scan Disk and a couple of the troubleshooters. Anyone know what's wrong? It happened after the computer had frozen up while I was trying to open Explorer yesterday morning. Nothing had been addd or removed right before this happened. |
