Re: Funky machine

Thanks, how do you decrypt EFS? This system was new & patched and never
on-line. This system, and large sample of new retail small build hardware,
as been flatten hard many times.

Update, Made the mistake of updating Norton sys05.

A clean reboot;
Lost connect to on-board hardware firewall but not web(still behind network)
Windows Explorer shutdown by DEP, sent error report.

Anyway thanks,
Scott

You seem to have multiple issues that could be a result of multiple
malware infections. I suggest that you have your data files backed up and
files encrypted with EFS encrypted first and then have a clean install of
the operating system done. It probably would be a good idea to document
current cmos settings for the motherboard and then choose default settings
before installing the new operating system. Steps in the link below need
to be taken to minimize chances of future operating system problems. ---

"Setup was unable to open information file hidei with carrot top BOX BOX

System will not load Xp without hardware failure unless:
Network present at boot
All BIOS enabled.
Specific failures relate to BIOS Shadowing & ACPI
Resetting, changing every insanely possible piece of hardware fails but
put
on network loads mostly cleanly.

Stopping IM messenger for one boot, lost video card and dual boot causing
a
shop repair to fix.
