DarkenedSoul has computer issues too?!

'Fraid it's true. Windows Vista Home Premium, 32bit.

Windows Explorer freezes whenever I rename anything, move anything, copy and paste anything... more or less when anything is changed inside it.

I've made no recent changes to my computer.

What do you suppose it could be, tech wizards? Virus?

Your insight is appreciated muchly and shall be rewarded in the currency you people know as rep.

Gee, thanks Tsuyu. What a wonderful example.

How about you be bloody helpful, and if you can't stomach that, not post? Hmm?

That was about as helpful as someone asking for help with the Zune and telling them to get an iPod instead.

Lighten up will you? Asking about tech support and then saying that you run Vista is just asking for it. :rolleyes:

Okay, would you like my address so you can send me a copy of Windows 7?

Oh, can't afford it? Me neither.

I know Vista sucks, I only have to live with it for another few days - stop rubbing it in my face.

Before I rub something in your face. :sly:

No point, I only have a few days of this. Besides, I can't afford to lose all my files.

Re: DarkenedSoul has computer issues too?!

renameing and moving things in your own documents? yeah, im 90% sure that is not a virus. U could always try diabling Norton for a bit. It acts kinda gay sometimes.

...Do you really think I'd install Norton on my PC? I know Vista is bad, but Norton with it?! Suicidal.

Some time ago i was talked into getting Norton with my PC. Not only was it buggy and slowed my computer down a lot (specs were top of the line at the time) it decided some critical windows registry files were viruses and deleted them (they werent). Made my whole Windows unstable and PC would no longer boot properly. Was a nightmare to fix and a real pain, safe to say Norton got uninstalled (which was also a task in itself) and never used a Norton product again.

Get Windows 7. Should fix that right up.

Windows 7 is what Vista should have been.
