Ok, I got the "Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations." message.

I believe this could be a permissions problem, as mpascal suggested. If this is true, what would I do to fix that? Considering it affects most programs, it must be an important or many dll's\ocx's.
I've tried the following code, but got access denied:
. CACLS %systemroot%\System32\*.dll /E /G BUILTIN\Users:R
. CACLS %systemroot%\System32\*.ocx /E /G BUILTIN\Users:R
Is there any other way to do this, like something before boot?
(For the heck of it, going to try to run those commands in Win. 7, only with the path pointing to B:\, my Vista partition)

And a tip, In Vista if you just run sfc, it will close before you can read it when it's done.
You should probably do Start>Start Search>cmd>sfc /scannow
Then, when it's done, the command prompt will still be open, showing the results, while when you skip the cmd & just run sfc it closes.

Are you the only user account on this system? Go to Start -> Control Panel -> Classic View -> User Accounts. Does your account say Administrator or Limited User?

I am the only user-created account on the computer. I am an administrator.
I did activate the built-in Admin account though.

I just found out something interesting.
I can start some programs, though many things Windows related still give the error.
Now I can at least back-up. :)

Well, as it seems that's my last option, I have to.

Copying files for back-up now (good thing Win. 7 RC is out :) )

Thanks for the help, guess my system was just messed up too bad.

As a last request, can you recommend some free anti- virus\spyware? My Mcaffe subscription runs out in Sept & don't feel like paying for something that let my comp die :).

Avast! Antivirus - Light on system resources, boot scan options, and very good virus detection.

Anti-Vir - Another great free antivirus program. Also light on system resources and constantly ranks near the top in virus detection.

Both are very good free anti virus programs, the choice is yours :)

Avira AntiVir? I use that for my laptop, didn't know that it ranked top though! (My laptop sucks, needed the most basic I could get)

Thanks for all the help!

Wow, I found out those 15 recovery disks my computer told me to make a while ago, are completely useless.
They tell me my system is not supported, even though it's the same computer. :)
Go figure, good thing the recover partition works :).

Ok, I have a problem.
My recovery disks say this is a different computer (which it's not).
My recover partition says the same thing, this is not it's original computer (it is).
Last, my Vista DVD (the homemade one) ends up to be for repairing only, not installing.

So, I am left with an unusable computer (the partition erased the disk, then said this is not orig :) ) with no way to reinstall vista.

I was running 32 bit, but have install disks for a 64 bit (parent's computer). Will my product key work for that?

Thought so...

Currently, the only internal addition is a Video card.
There was a wireless card in it once, and it was there when I made the disks, but I removed it for my superior USB wireless adapter.
