Computer gurus please help. Lap top crash.


Recommended Posts

explorer.exe is your desktop. try this :

Try running the Virtual Technician to see if it will fix whatever it is: http://mvt.mcafee.com/

If not then try a complete uninstall via Control Panel > Programs > Uninstall a Program

Run the MCPR cleanup tool listed under Useful Links at the top of the page and reboot.

Install the software again from your online account.

If it happens again I would contact Technical Support - it's a free phone call or online chat and also linked under Useful Links.

Last thought, if you are using registry cleaners/optimizers, don't. This is the sort of thing they cause.

maybe just a total wipe and reboot, my opinion. Wipe, re-partition, and re-download OS if u can manage to download a copy of it.

What the f**k is an appropriate signature supposed to look like?

if doing a reinstall id just use the recovery partition.

Well its saying windows detected a problem and is being shut down for protection. The beautiful blue screen.

it seems like mcaffee is fucking with your registry. a reinstall might be the best to do.

I will have to call them tomorrow cause I can't get anywhere. I was hoping for something simple. I get to the panel it shuts down same with Google or internet explorer. Her lap top was a Christmas gift so still under warranty still. I really thank all you guy for the help.

It sounds like your computer is too far gone to fix easily. If you were close to me id look at it for you and fix it. Virus issues arent that hard to fix most of the time but it takes a good amount of experience with them to know how they work and how to kill them.

When you press f8 before windows boots is there an option called "repair your computer"? Usually its the very first option toward the top before it goes into saying safe mode, safe mode with networking, etc. If so there is a slim chance you can get into the command prompt and then type the command to start the combofix program but you HAVE to know the directory its stored under (c:/users/.....) combofix is just a command line utility so you can launch that from just command prompt if needed. If that doesnt work then the easy way out would be to just format the hard drive and start windows fresh. I dont usually recommend doing it but if you are like the 99% of people whose computers i work on and the data is not backed up you could take out the hard drive and install it on another machine to recover your files then wipe windows and start over. Again i dont usually recommend doing this because there is always that chance that the virus is lingering on those files and can unleash itself again.

edit: for your warranty they never cover things like this. All that they would do is erase windows and start it from scratch and charge extra if you need the stuff recovered from the hard drive. Thats the easy way out and a ton of companies do it that way. Its too time consuming for big companies to waste time with looking into why a system crashes and fixing viruses than it is to reimage the computer and leave.
