I was having problems with mozilla firefox saying that it was running in the backround in ctrl alt delete there was no firefox in applicatins or processes. Than I restored the computer to 2 days back. Firefox than was able to open and close. The next day I could not connect to the computer. Called ATT and they said that my network drivers were missing, in and device manager was empty. Also when I click help and support it says service is not running. I was unable to use my usb drive but for what ever reason it was able to work today. I went to the library to download driver tuner I was able to install it but when installed I cannot to run it. How do I get my drivers back, my network adapter and all items in my device manager back? Any help would be great.
