UKEZ, that is what happens when you weak up on the wrong side of the bed. So a little knowledge of the OS is important, sure hope you didn't download that version of 7 from a torrent site, albeit if you did then there is nothing more to say.

I see guys here would defend Windows 7 credibility well. I personally encountered a few bugs on Windows 7 such as the black log on screen where there is nothing except the black screen and a white cursor but went back to normal after a reboot.
It could be a virus for goodness' sake. If you have been downloading stuff illegally through torrents or Limewire, those are the consequences and do not blame the OS for that. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Custom Built OS Windows 7 Ultimate 32 Bit, Windows Developer Preview, Linux Mint 9 Gnome 32 Bit CPU Intel Pentium Dual CPU E2180@2GHz Motherboard Elitegroup 671T-M3 Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce 7200 GS Monitor(s) Displays AOC TFT1560 15" LCD Monitor Screen Resolution 1024x768 Keyboard Logitech USB Keyboard |

Hi Vertex, this is my home office pc for video editing and CAD and has Sophos Security Suite running on it. It didn't and still doesn't have a virus. No torrent applications or illegal software is running on this machine as I have to protect both mine and my clients information rigorously, I have my Vaio for everyday use and things like that.
Note: The only thing that I allowed to happen was a windows update which happened when I shut the system down. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number UKEZ OS Windows 7 Pro CPU QX9770 Motherboard FOXCONN BLACKOPS Memory 8GB OCZ Graphics Card 2 x ATI 4890 Sound Card QUANTON FORCE HD Monitor(s) Displays 52" SAMSUNG 8 SERIES PSU ANTEC TRUEPOWER QUATRO 1000W Case ANTEC 902 Cooling CORSAIR H50 Hard Drives 2x SAMSUNG 2TB RAID 1 |
