Helpwith Windows Vista

[Gunner46]

My laptop is just wacked. I need to either completely re-boot to an original start, or learn whwere to go to start deleting some viral programs. Anybody a 'Vista' champ, or know one ?

Step one, throw windows laptop in trash, step 2 , buy a MacBook. Lol.

If I were you, I would just do a reload if you have a backup of the important stuff.

Start in safe mode with networking. (F8 during startup..."advanced boot options"..."safe mode with networking")
Go to control panel to uninstall/change programs. Uninstall any toolbars you have downloaded for your browser. (notorious for spyware, etc.)
Uninstall any anti-virus software you already have. If you have AVG, let me know, because its a bit more complicated.
Download a free 30-day trial version of Kapersky or purchase Kapersky or Norton.
Install software, update it, and run a full scan of the computer.
Restart windows. If your computer still screws up, do the restore.

Drop kicked the damn thing last night right thru the bedroom window. Went to Wally- Mart and bought a new one. They have become as disposable as Dixie cups these days.

Throw all VISTA & HP stuff in the TRASH! I have Windows 7 & it works great.... YES, I WANT MAC stuff, but hell I own my own business, I don't make enough money!
