This is just messed up. Told my friend last night to turn off my computer... tryed to tell him the hot keys to turn it off, but he's kinda slow... So any ways after he finally shut it down, well it was taking a long time, (Azureus was running and not shuttind down quickly I guess) So he just shut it off using the power button. But upon starting up this morning, Pnkbstr A/B have an error and have to close. Can't uninstall it because it has a problem and has to close. After a while jusched.exe has a problem and has to close. Can't open Opera, just has a problem and has to close. Can't sign in to MSN Messenger. Norton Antivirus wanted me to renew my subscription, so I uninstalled that. Having problems with the lastest NOD32. Uninstalling Opera and Java updates had no effect. Oh and now I can't really remember the message, but when I first started up a message popped up saying I needed to go into control panel and update my something, hardware? Anythoughts here? I've pressed F8 upon startup and returned to the most recent working configuration, but to no affect.

OS corrupted maybe? That's all I can think of.

Hmm, perhaps. Decided to do a scan disk. Problem, I right click on the C drive, Windows Explorer encounters an error and has to close... Microsoft products deeply anger me.

was the bios reset by chance.....maybe time and date settings were reset and messed some of it up.....but it definitely sounds like you may need to run chkdsk from the recovery console
is this vista or XP?
maybe your buddy sabitoged your PC

His idea of sabitoge would be uninstalling WoW. But I never played that so no problem there. He's not smart enough to pull anything off like that. He's a noob haha. I did run chkdsk read only mode in cmd and there were almost a dozen Azureus errors. I'll try and fix it after I get home from work. Too tired to do it before bed. 8:34pm and I'm draggin' my ass here haha. Have to work at 5am. I'm an old man you know... ground's not quite as soft as it used to be. It was a big leap from 19 to 20 haha

Haha. I just realized something... you were correct. The time and date wasn't changed.... BUT! The year was 2090 haha. That was all the cause of my problems... Yes, just that.... So after doing that I could open Opera, right click on my hard drive, sign into MSN Messenger.... Guess that's why NAV2K7 showed as out of date.... I only noticed when I went to open Nero and it said my version was out of date. So I checked after that. Thanks for the responses guys. I moused over it before and the date/time was exactly the same but didn't notice the year. Was just still steaming over it, so happy now.
EDIT: OMG! After using IE7 for a few days I LOVE Opera!!!!! So effing fast compard to IE7. And no stupid block every damn thing because the secuirty settings blow.
i JUST started useing firefox about 2 days ago and it is definately different, but seems ok. i just HATE having that lame IE icon on my desktop

Anyway FrozenMercury, i think there's an I/O error - as your HDD is trying to save stuff before shutdown, suddenly the power cuts off........... the data could be messed out as the write-ahead function of the HDD could easily corrupted data........ as explained in this quote below:
In write-ahead caching, information that is to be saved to the hard drive is placed in the cache and then saved at a later point, freeing up the CPU and the user to continue with other tasks. Problems with write-ahead caching occur when the computer is shut down before the cache can completely save all the data, resulting in its loss.

Either that or your PC is playing trick on you. Halloween brings creepy s*it :eek:
