Ladies, gentlemen, and undecided....
I recently tried to reinstall Windows. Upon restarting - I had an impenetrable clue screen crash - and was forced to reformat. (this is why my windows install base lives on a partition totally isolated from everything else...)
I did a clean installation. now for some reason all sorts of wired changes have taken place, none of this happened before:
-I can't use the windows update site. It starts to scan for changes, then remains at 0%.
-My taskbar changes size on restart.
-MSN fails when it tries to sign in automatically.
-NFS 4: High Stakes doesn't work when I try to use hardware acceleration.
What might be going on?
Specs:
-P4 2Ghz on an ASUS P4S533/C
-1024Gb DDR333 RAM
-Seagate Barracuda, 40Gb drive + 80Gb drive
-VisionTek GeForce4 Ti4600 4x
-SB Live! Value 5.1 S.E.
-Windows XP pro
-Lite On 32x RW burner
