Hi All,
Two days ago I noticed the following
1. Network icon says deactive (small red cross) whilst connected to the internet
2. Cannot install any new program...Windows just hangs
3. Cannot uninstall any program....Windows just hangs
(tried to reinstall Windows Installer from the web but that just hangs as well)
4. Cannot access any administrative tool...Windows just hangs
5. Some programs do not start
What have I tried:
1. Numerous system restores...nothing works
2. After system restore...Windows doesn't start up properly. I have to type 'Explorer' from the Task Manager to get it working.
3. I've noticed that MSISERVER is stopped as a service. Cannot right-click and start. Cannot access the Services program either.
4. Safe Mode still works but can't install/uninstall apps.
5. banged my head and fist on keyboard.
Any help is much appreciated.
Many thanks
Kevin
