my pc runs rather well after doin reguarly virus/spyware scans, defrags, registry scanns, and generally keep system processes to a minimum, but there are still a few things that screw up. to mention a few
#windows never shuts down fully, gets to blue screen then stays on, (yet will shut down after running in safe mode)
#all microsoft applications dont recognise i have a cd-rw drive yet itunes does and works fine
#edit something in windows media player and it either crashes or goes unresponsive for a while

is there a good pc/windows fixer anyone can recomend. i have altered a lot of system processes and im sure one has come corrupt or damaged over time, none of these problems are seriuos just bloody annoying!!!!

Hi tuscan440!

#windows never shuts down fully, gets to blue screen then stays on, (yet will shut down after running in safe mode)

Try going into the DEVICE MANAGER and disabling your CD-RW and then try and shutdown your computer and see if that takes care of the no-shutdown problem.

na it didn't change anything, the cd-rw only stopped workin bout two weeks ago, this shutting down problem has been goin for about 6 months! and when i tried to change it back i had blue screen of death but started it again and it was fine, (this blue screen of death appears v.rarely and inconsistently
recommend any fixing programs then or are they not much cop???

What is the exact error message that you receive when you get the BSOD?

dont kno exactly i didnt write it down, but i kno they are not the same each time it does crash, it did it loads when i was installin xp pro a while back, hoping that would ammend the shuting down fault, it didnt but during installation had loads of bsod, they were all different and think the cd-rw problem may have stemmed from that.
