You said in the OP that you already reformatted yoru computer.   Anyway, that does suck. I've had to reformat my computer before, and I swear it ran MORE slowly than when I had all my gunk, junk, and random crap stored on it. I did, but I wasn't sure if, reformatting, and formatting was the same thing, I thought after you reformated it, you had to do something TO format it ? I'm not very.. computer savvy and yeah, it is going a littlleee faster actually JennyColada Posted at 12:41 am on Feb. 25, 2008 Quote: from littlebigwonder at 4:39 pm on Feb. 24, 2008 Quote: from imakethetest66 at 7:38 pm on Feb. 24, 2008 Format your computer. and how do I do that?

You have to make sure you have all your master cd's. Your Windows XP cd, drivers cd, and Application cd (if your computer came with one). Formatting your compute completely takes everything off of your computer, including the viruses your computer is infected with. You need those cd's to install everything back on your computer. If you have all those cd's, then I can give you a website that tells you how or write down the steps for you. Also, you might want to burn all your files you want on a cd. brunettechic Posted at 4:50 pm on Feb. 24, 2008 I'm not sure why your computer hates you. Have you been abusing it? straypussy Posted at 4:41 pm on Feb. 24, 2008 give it some loving to cheer it up. and remember: wear a condom hypnotiq desir3 Posted at 4:40 pm on Feb. 24, 2008 You mean to say you emptied out the entire hard drive, reinstalled the OS and came back to the exact same problem?  Hahaha You should make sure the toolbar isn't on autohide.  And probably install ad block and spyware doctor. littlebigwonder Posted at 4:39 pm on Feb. 24, 2008 Quote: from imakethetest66 at 7:38 pm on Feb. 24, 2008 Format your computer. and how do I do that? sarah is hot Posted at 4:39 pm on Feb. 24, 2008 the same reason computers hate me lol staceylolz Posted at 4:39 pm on Feb. 24, 2008 Back everything up and Image restore.
