There is not enough free memory to run this program.

I did uninstall Pando a couple months ago after I heard about that. But even if I didn't, I can't access the Control Panel to uninstall Pando, anyway.

It does mater, good thinking. In post #14 I stated that this worried me.

How to Reset Windows Registry Permissions | Tech

You have run some very good security program scans and they came up clean.
You can't access things that you should be able to access.
You can't remove or install things which you should be able to do. Windows 7 show you do not have a ram problem but yet you get warnings. You can't run sfc /scannow.
You can still run games and I don't understand that.
Somebody might have more ideas but I'm left with a Clean Install as the last option. Here is Tutorial.
Read through this and take your time.

Thanks for dropping by Thorsen because I have run out of ideas.
Good find on that Pando Booster.

 

[Thorsen]

No problem layback. didn't see your post at #14

If you can get into msconfig, you could try this: do a "Selective Startup" and set it up like this:


This would turn off all non-essential services. You shouldn't leave it this way, but it is a good test. If you do this, do so offline, see if it helps and reselect "normal startup". The problem will return, but at least you will know it isn't the system itself. (If the problem doesn't go away, you might have a driver conflict)

Nothing's changed. I did the Resource Monitor right when I logged on.

 

[Layback Bear]

This is what is the bother to me from Post #1

How to Reset Windows Registry Permissions | Tech

I have no idea what such a program can or does do correctly.
Me and bananakma are both open to suggestions.
Thank you Thorsen.

I looked at the program, but didn't run it myself. I'm not that brave. I think a startup repair can repair registry issues and might fix anything that the registry permission program could have broken. I don't suppose the program backed up the registry. If the program installed a folder for it's program, then there might be a backup that the program created. If not, that's a sign of poor registry etiquette. Never make changes to the registry without backing it up and if this programmer doesn't follow that as a first step, then I wouldn't trust his next steps....

anywho.. here is a tutorial on startup repair. I would try this first...

Another thing to try would be to download autoruns. it's like msconfig for startup items, but better: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

look for anything that says "file not found" in the file location column. disable those entries.

 

[bananakma]

I don't have the disk so I'll try ordering it online.
If anything, I'll just wipe my computer. There's nothing of too much importance on here anyway.

Thanks for your help, both of you!

 

[Thorsen]

don't order a startup disk. that costs money. if you have a second computer you are working from or can get one, download the ISO from a credible source and burn it to a disk (look through steps for the ISO download link) : http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1649-clean-install-windows-7-a.html

 

[bananakma]

I got a new computer coming in next week. It's just unfortunate timing that I screwed this one up before my other one came. I'll see what I can do next week then.
Thanks!

 

[Thorsen]

No problem bnanakma. if you do reinstall, follow the tutorial for the clean install, and if you need any help with that, just let us know

good stuff in this thread Layback Bear. must spread around rep so I can't rep you so I'll say "props" here.

Is this still the corrupt Sony factory preinstalled Win7, larded with bloatware and duplicate utilities that have better versions built into Win7? If so you're way past due for a Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7. Everything you need is in the link to get and keep a perfect install, as long as you stick with the tools and methods given.

I'd also prepare by testing my RAM - Test with Memtest86+ for 6-8 passes or overnight.

 

[TVeblen]

Could this be a memory leak?

This may seem like a dumb question, but: have you turned this laptop off in the last few days?
Not sleep or hibernate, but OFF.

 

[Layback Bear]

After the msconfig I assumed their was a reboot and I also requested a reboot but I really don't know if it happened.

 

[TVeblen]

It is my understanding that a reboot (warm boot) will not always clear the RAM registers if you are experiencing a memory leak.
The PC must be powered down and a "cold boot" performed in order to be sure all the registers are clear and remapped.

FYI, in the future, Windows has is own decompression utility, you do not need Winzip, I haven't used it since Windows 98/ME, it's outdated.
If you really must use a decompression utility, 7zip and Winrar are far better alternatives.

 

[Layback Bear]

Very good point TVeblen. I'm a big fan of Cold Boots, they do many nice things but I don't think I requested one.

seems to (may) be virus problem.otherwise some dll files missing.
clean the system with soft cleaner,it having a through memory cleaning procedure.then restart the system(corrects my shutdown and keyboard problem before).
no changes then run the latest spybot antivirus,through full system scan,takes a long time some hours(through scan will sketch small to large files carefully).if it does not help then restore the system to an earliest stage.its not from the laptop problem 99%.
