This started as a printer problem. When installing my new colour laser the USB port could not detect it. So I went to Device Manager only to find the window empty!
I've tried Google and several forums:
checked PunP is working
tried Apropos fix
tried correcting registry entries in ENUM permissions
Nothing works.
Also system was hanging on startups and shutdowns, sometimes needing the big switch to get out of it. Now you can click on IE or My Computer or Control Panel and it takes ages for them to load. Usually I find myself with about five instances of each all loading at once.
Frequently web links wont work. The only thing I can do is avoid a left click - use right clicks to save sortcut and then paste it into address bar.
I have to use TAsk Manager fequently to get oiut of hung programs.
I am beside myself. Just installed new chipset drivers. Anyone any ideas???? PLEASE!!!!
My system is:
3.4GHz P4
1024 MB
ATI X800XL graphics card
XFi Xtreme Music sound card
750GB in 1x 200GB and 1x 500GB
Bulldog 8MB connection through LAN to router
Norton Internet Security 2006
3 xDVD writers
