I am facing a lot of problems with windows xp which needs to be rectified. For this I need your help. Please do not tell me to format, as I also know it is the easiest way out. But I want to try the harder way because somebody asked me the question on another forum. “Who long a windows installation work correctly without any errors?”Earlier I used to format it every 1 or 2 months now I will give it try to use windows as long as possible. Currently my xp is celebrating is first anniversary. now I need your help to solve some problems. Please suggest any way possible other than freash intsall with or without format.
Config: Microsoft windows xp (built 2600), avast antivirus, Amd athlon 3000+ (754), 256 mb ram (64 mb video ram).
The problems are:-
Hanging windows-after I switch on the computer & the desktop is just displayed while the startup programs like avast antivirus is loading. The computer hangs just before loading of startup programs it comes stand still. Even the animated cursor stops. No matter how many times I press ctrl+alt+delete there is no effect .I have to restart it with reset button.
Late power down- it takes a lot more time than normal in shutting down of my pc. When I click on shutdown it responds quickly and imitated the kill all process but in last phase when welcome screen displays the msg ‘windows is shutting down’ it really slows down the hdd indicator light stops glowing after 1-2 min it finally power down.
Sudden restart- when I use my computer for long time i.e. is more than 2 hrs the screen turns black for 1 sec and it finally restarts. However it is to be noted that after restart the xp keeps on rebooting after the os choices boot loader. However windows-2000 is running smoothly at that point of time with no problems.
Noise-sometimes my computer makes hell of a noise even after I installed a chimney fan at the side of cabinet. Noise made is so irritating that I cannot my work on computer.
Disappearing Quick launch toolbar-my quick lunch bar is disappearing again & again after each restart and I have to enable it manually each time I use computer. What a painful task!
