I have heard that ME is a pain. I have had it for about 2 years and I really don't know any better. So the last thing I will do is the prompt to uninstall the windows help and the PC health stuff correct? I have tried all the obvious stuff for the untrained. I am hoping this works or I will be trying to slave the hard drive to save some files before I reinstall. I have not backed anything up for awhile. Thanks again.
