Well Norton came with my Isp. I have heard positive things about McAfee

Well I think its finally fixed.Drivers updated, registry fixed and a few other tweaks. Was not exactly how I wanted to spend a day off :P
RE: Compy Repair - Animayhem - 05-27-2015
Well.... looks like I have to do a fresh install of Windows. Soo glad I have the disks....
RE: Compy Repair - Animayhem - 05-29-2015
Ok soo... tomorrow I may be on later depending on what happens. If they can repair windows by just using the disk then fine.
If they have to wipe, I I just hope I can reload NWN from my eternal drive and play. If not then reinstall from disks.
Mostly everything is backed up. Will have to add a few things.
*fingers crossed*

Sooo took 8hrs. It would of been quicker in one respect if they did a wipe.
However they repaired it from disk so no program got uninstalled :)
So a few more tweaks and then hopefully done

Soooo. I may have to do a wipe anyway. I was unable to start my computer the diagnosis said corrupted registry.
I may try again tomorrow. If not then I will call and have a wipe done.

I will be taking this in steps. Starting with this friday so more than likely I will not be in game.
Possibly will be in game over the weekend.

I upgraded my internet service. I am hoping it will be in place before I have to download the updates.
RE: Compy Repair - Animayhem - 06-12-2015
Ok so it looks like HDD kaput. I will be gettin a new computer. If this was only the second HDD I would consider it but it would be the fourth.
I will post what I am thinking of buying. I will use my dinosaur so apologies if my actions may be jumpy in game.
RE: Compy Repair - Animayhem - 06-18-2015
New computer was shipped yesterday. I am hoping to get it tomorrow or sat but we shall see.
Supposedly my faster internet speed will be in affect today. If so it will help me use my old computer a bit better and will even boost my newer one :)
