Needsomehelp Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Hi, I have a serious problem with my laptop. Recently it has become really slow and the other day it will not show my profile. It boots up and lets me logon but it then comes up with a svchost.exe errpr and an explorer.exe error. I have tried to repair windows with my installation disk but the windows installation does not appear in the list and it only allows me to install a new copy of xp. I have also tried to expand the svchost.ex off the installation disk to C:\windows\system32 folder but it says Access Is Denied. I have tried to also open the document and settings folder but it says Access is denied. Does anyone have any ideas on how i can solve this.

Start with an online scan on http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ - use v6.6, as it is easier and faster than v6.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the same for the safe mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
