Recently I'd accidentally deleted the NVIDIA network driver (after [unsuccessfully] trying to remove all traces of the NVIDIA graphics driver [long story - was on graphics section of this site, but anyway..].
So I did a System Restore (I hadn't made a restore point since May, so it installed a few critical updates again) which got my internet back on, but my Norton 360 wasn't working - it seemed to somehow have been heavily corrupted, as it didn't do anything every time I tried clicking on it (no Norton exe's in my Task Manager either)
So I decided to reinstall it... but now after uninstalling it [and restarting my PC], trying to install it again - even with the CD - it gets to the loading screen... then nothing happens. I checked Task Manager, and setup.exe is there, but then it disappears.
I tried downloading a trial copy [so I can put my product key in after] and installing that, but the same thing happened again!
No error messages come up at all btw.
I'm not sure what information I'm to give you for this; I guess it's something in Event Viewer, but I don't know what I'm doing in there.
