1204318 2011-05-24 10:20:00 Hi Speedy,
Thanks to your assistance my problem (pressf1.pcworld.co.nz) Stop # C0000263 BSoD, has been solved, many thanks for that.

Again, with your assistance my friends problem, (pressf1.pcworld.co.nz) HiJack log, has largely been aleviated, however, there are a few remaining issues.

After removing the items suggested by you from the HiJack this list I cleaned many redundant shortcuts off of the desktop and 8 or so un-needed programs out of the task bar, there were 19 items presumably running in the background in the system tray !
I then removed Nortons antivirus, ( including all entries in the reg edit).

After a re-boot the system now runs at an improved speed though still not at the original speed, (according to my friend).

She was worried about “no antivirus”, so I installed Avast.

Avast, MalwareBytes and Spybot all up-dated to the latest release, run clean now.
Ccleaner and defrag have both been executed.

HiJackThis has been run, the final number of bytes in HiJacks’ log is now reduced from 8090 odd to 6945, a reduction of approximately 13%.

I feel that many of the remaining items in the system tray are un-necessary as my friend has no idea what they are and never uses them.
The program\start folder in documents and settings needs a good clean out also but I will talk to her about that.

Could you please cast an eye over this latest log attached and suggest any further actions to improve the system performance further.

Again, many thanks for your valued continued assistance.
Cheers,
Phil.

1204320 2011-05-24 11:50:00 jupiter1, could you please stop making new threads on the same problem. This only makes it harder for people to help as they do not know what advice has already been given or followed. Please continue to post in your original thread(s).

I have just merged four of your threads back into two.

Hi Speedy,
Apologies for the oversight.
I have never seen this notebook until late on Tuesday as the lady lives many kilometers away from me. I had been talking over the phone only up until this time and was not aware of all the crap on the desktop or in the system tray.

The lap top should be thrown away in my opinion.
Neither the touchpad nor key board work so she has a USB2 keyboard and mouse attached. The DVD drive also is dead.

I will go over again today if possible to apply the recent changes you suggest but am wondering if any of them affect the USB2 mouse and keyboard ?

Cheers,
Phil

Jen…
Oop’s sorry, point taken.
Cheers,
Phil.

1204322 2011-05-24 22:47:00 Use teamviewer its a lot easier than going there. And check it out. Nope nothing in that affects the kb or mouse (if you mean the log) Speedy Gonzales (78)
1204323 2011-05-26 22:35:00 Hi Speedy,
Well all your work has resulted in some improvement,however, it still performs a bit like a slug.
The woman concerned has bit the bullet and decided to gat a new machine, an "All in one".
Given the condition of her laptop the is a wise decission IMHO.

Many thanks for you efforts.
Regards,
Phil.
