Hi there,

About 2 weeks ago my I received my first of many errors to follow. I
can't see my network connections, I can't access my firewall
settings, I can't run windows installer then I receive error message:
windows installer service could not be access this can occur if you
running windows in safe mode or if the windows installer is not
correctly installed. I have windows installer
3.1. I receive numerous COM+ errors one being: The COM+ Event System
detected a bad return code during its internal processing. HRESULT
was 80110474 from line 44 of
d:\qxp_slp\com\com1x\src\events\tier1\eventsystemobj.cpp. Please
contact Microsoft Product Support Services to report this error.
Another error EVENT ID 43: WMI ADAP failed to connect to namespace
\\.\root\cimv2 with the following error: 0x80110474. I can't view my
system information via Component Services and the list goes on.

I got this laptop in FEB 2006 and it came with XP SP2.
Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP Professional (32-bit)
OS Version: 5.01.2600 Service Pack 2

Could someone please help me, I've read on the internet that my
problems could be related to SP2 but if my laptop came pre-installed
with SP2, I can't just merely unistall SP2 and revert to SP1 as I do
not have SP1.

Thanking you in anticipation!

Regards

have you done a THOROUGH scan with two or more updated mailware and spyware
removers (Spybot and Adware are the favourites) and an updated anti-virus
program?
