I have no signed security certificates that are issued to
guarantee the software is what is is supposed to be. No
signed drivers...I ran a device driver sig verification
tool, and had maybe 10 % signed. Then a huge warning
about my XMLhtml driver being missing.
Theexe errors I started out with were after my utility
ran a registry clean up ereasing all the system
stuff...When I opened clicked a program it would
say "rundll32 cannot be located be sure you typed in the
correct file ...OR it would say "null" cannot be found,
and or to rundll as an app...no clue why other than tthe
registry was all messed up. Then It was over a week of
storms here in Cali..we're not used to that..when it is
back on, it is back on...it seemed to be an omen rather
than bad luck about the power, and when I just had to get
on my computer...I do digital art...so you see...I
wouldn't have admitted it if I was just surfing...I am
always in the middle of several projects and I would no
more than boot her and there would be an incident..
HP talks about a microsoft bug that is ereaseing the
driver sigs throught ones system, and that microsoft is
aware of it...or that there is a patch to fix it. I now
am unable to use my IE. Funny how my warranty ended while
waiting to hear back from them. My instant support does
not detect my internet connection. I have all the
downloaded updates waiting to go on board, but that
scares me to put them all in at once..I guess some advice
on what you can make sence of would help.
