Re: Setup



It was a Game called Robots that my children put on it.
After shutdown it would not boot into windows, so I thought I would
go into setup and add/remove, tried F8 on booting several times, then
tried delelete which brings you into bios setup. Tried window repair,
no show again.
Ended up formatting my hard drive to fix the problem. Terrible hard
way to fix a crook program
Now I want to know what to do next time. Children will be children
and I will kill them next time :-))

Thanks again

I tried to boot into set up, hit delete etc, trying to uninstall a
program
that stopped windows booting.

What programm you trying to uninstall? May be you should try to
remove this programm manualy (delete executable?)?
