[sage79]

Hello. my computer has same problems so i want to reinstall windows mateining my setting. i've installed sp1 and stupidly remove backup files. i've sliptreamed the sp1 by rt 7 lite but when i reinstall windows the installation says me that the current version of windows is more recent. how can i fix it? thank you

You probably have to overwrite your old version of windows by a reformat of your hard disk.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings..

This is one more reason to always make an image before installing any suspect service packs.

i have to fix my problems manually. googling, i fixed most of problems except one. when explorer crashes and i restart it, taskbar disappears. do anyone know how i can fix this? thanks

Run a sfc scan to fix corrupted system files, 3-4 times.

yes, i've already launched it. i also created a new account but the problem persist.

Impossible to say whats going on. As you mentioned you used "rt 7 lite" a whole bunch of horrible stuff could be wrong. Impossible to say.

i also use the manual method. i decompressed sp1 and integrate in install.wim. same error: windows in use is most recent.

When the taskbar disappears press ctrl + Shift + Esc (will bring up task manager) then under the applications tab click 'New Task...' and type in explorer.exe
