| access violation? When "working" out of Explorer ( my directory) I am always getting this message & wonder if anybody know why or what. :-) "Access violation at address 00000079. Read at address 00000079. I click okay, everything disappears from my desktop, but comes back in a sec, minus most of my icons on the right hand side. To get all of them back I have to re-boot. This has been happening for a long time & wonder if it is maybe time to format?? Any help is appreciated. .....Seaweed |

This should keep all data and programs intact. You'll need to apply all updates again from the windows update site. Make sure you have a full and complete backup of important data because though a repair install is non destructive things can go wrong. You should always have a full and complete backup at all times. http://www.michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm |
