388249 2005-09-14 22:09:00 k, sorry. When I open help and support, in the search bar I type System Info. Then under pick a task, I click: get information about your computer. if i click View general info or View status of system hardware and software they open, start loading, then the entire screen closes. all the others open fine. If I click view advanced system info, then, view detailed system info (Msinfo32.exe) it dosn't even start loading, just closes.

You have been so helpful, thanks. Sorry I wasn't more specific.
