Gadgets has stopped working - strange and tough problem ;/

Hello,

today I have changed my audio driver and after this my gadgets windows disappear + windows constantly showing me message "Gadgets has stopped working..." with no resolve info about this.

I've tried to resolve this problem a number of ways, including:
- restore gadgets installed with windows 7 (option within control panel) EACH TIME I click this option I am getting "Gadgets has stopped working"
- Registry edit (nothing chenged)
- Delate settings.ini (nothing changed)

When I click any options related to gadgets I am getting "Gadgets has stopped working"

What is wrong, how to repair it ?

Looks like you hav file corruptionproblem. I guess your Laptop did not have Windows Ultimate version pre installed. If you have installed the Ultimate version yourself where did your install disc come from?

I don't know my friend instaled os for me, how to repair it anyway ?

Also, sfc /scannow return - no problems.

I presume then that you haven't got a disc? Where did the licence key come fom then if you have no disc?
Can you click on this link, download and install and post a screenshot of the result here please?
Genuine Microsoft Software

No offense but, what is the correlation between windows genuine veryfication and not working gadget ?

PS: my os is genuine version.

Reinstall the version of windows that came with the pc, there should be a sticker on the pc with the keycode.

Most likely Home Premium 64 bit.

Now I am looking around to find cd in my room mess it isn't
easy but is there any way to avoid reinstallation ? I am suprised because everything worked just geat until I changed audio drivers ;/ Anyway, I wonder how audio drivers reinstallation may influence gadgets ;/ ?

(...)can be the result of corrupted files on the installation disc! So they are almost impossible to repair without re installing !

Ok but it worked perfectly since begining, what about system repair from cd ?
