    Unhappy Help needed

    Hoping someone out there can give me some advice about my Computer.
    When I turn it on, sometimes it sticks at" Welcome" and I have to turn it off completely and try again.
    I have tried to delete 360 Pro share but it keeps popping up telling me it has encountered an internal error.
    Would that slow PC down?

    few questions;

    Which version of Windows?

    Do you get any specific error message?

    Why delete 360 Proshare is it part of the problem?

    Have you installed / uninstalled any application in the time the problem started?

    Have you tried a System restore ( assumming you are using XP)?

    If its sticking at Welcome then it could be a driver problem/conflict.
    But as what Phoebus has asked for would be of some help.

    Find mine does that occasionally, and I don't have that programme in mine.
    I just restart and it goes OK the second time................and it has been doing it for as long as I've had it.........so most likely a driver problem.

    I'm not inclined to play about with it in case I make it worse, as long as I can still boot to windows with one restart.

    Seems to be connected to what is still running when I close down........but I'm too impatient to continually check task manager!

    Thumbs up

    Thanks all. I tried the system restore and it seems to have worked. At least I'm getting on now without all the hassle.
    By the way it is a Windows XP Home edition and it's only one and a half years old .
    Thanks again!
