    compatibility mode not working


    help. my compatibility mode stoped working. i got a blue screen the other day installing avg 8.5 (but i don't think this is the reason, it happened b/c i was still running Avg 8 while installing the newer version)

    i am running build 7022. and it was working before and the install avg bsod seems to have screwed something up

    these are what i have settings on (i have also tried everyother os)


    and this is the error:

    If you have used any hacks to remove the watermark and send feedback, that will effect your compatibility mode and you will need to do a system restore back to the date you applied the patch and if you can't do system restore then you will need to do a Repair Install.

    In addition, you could try the SFC scan. Info here if needed. SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

    Warning:This will remove some hacks (watermark removal for one).
