Did run error checking and peeked at the log. It finds
nothing out of the ordinary. But is there a way to see
the entire log? Cause the path you gave me, I only see
the resume of things, just as shown at the end of
checkdisk.
Do you guys think I have to reinstall something? (I have
to reinstall my mouse's pilots anyways with instructions
from the windows support&troubleshooting page)
Waiting for an answer and very tired of XP's problems...
