    Bug issues


    Hello all,
    Okay, I rebuilt my machine about five months ago. I am using BitDefender for anit-virus-spam-firewall. Everything was working great for the first several months. Then sometime after checking my work e-mails from home on my machine I started to notice my internet brousing was going much slower than usual. I was also not able to access some websites anymore with IE. I did notice something very perculiar though. Whenever I would change my weather location on MSN on my home machine I would notice that same location was now on MSN at a work machine using XP. I think my employer placed a tracking cookie on my machine when I accessed my work e-mails.

    So, I reinstalled my OS (win 7) on my SSD HD. I left out all of my other software to see if it may have been effecting my system. I did reinstall BitDefender. During a scan of my computer BitDefender came across two files that could not be scanned because they were over compressed. They belonged to Nero 7. Which was odd because I had not yet reinstalled Nero but had it installed before the re-install. And I am still; having the same weird issue with my weather location on IE. It's obvious there is still some old data lingering on my SSD HD.

    So, what do I need to do to ensure my SSD HD is wiped clean so I can re-install Win 7? Is there some software out there to wipe clean my SSD HD I can use? Thanks, Bruce

    NO error there, you can not clean Disk 0 from the desktop.
    Use your Windows 7 DVD.

    Hello LindenBruce, welcome to Seven Forums!



    Have a look at this tutorial at the link below for the method and then run the clean all before you start the installation process and be sure to post back with any further questions you may have and to keep us informed.

    Thanks Theog.
    Bare foot kid I tried that process and my machine locks up. I will try it again today. Maybe I did something out of line. Thanks, Bruce

    Ok,

    When I get to the "press any key to boot from cd/dvd" screen I press any key and one of two things happens.

    The machine gives me a BOOTMGR is corrupt and it freezes
    or
    The machine freezes and I get a beeping sound from the mobo speaker.

    So what is going on here? Thanks, Bruce

    Where did you buy your Windows 7 DVD from?

    I bought it through Newegg when I rebuilt my machine about six months ago. Do you think I could have a BIOS issue with my MSI MoBo? Bruce
