| | Hi again and TY for your diligence.....I downloaded the autoplay repair to a memory stick and loaded it into the ailing computer. I tried to run it in safe mode and it didn't go. Then I rebooted and tried to run it in normal and it goes as far as the choose the drive screen and freezes there...I have been waiting here for over 5 minutes for something to happen and all that is going on is I'm getting older....(I'm trying to keep my humor and spirits up). The hour glass isn't even turning but the task manager says it is running....? what to do, please.. Hold the fort...It finally did something, what, I have no idea. I rebooted and lo..same slow stuff and lack of response when trying to open programs. I have a log for you to look at too... AutoFix [V5.2.3790.67]

| Try this:
Place the Linksys install disk into the cd-rom drive.
Click Start/Run,type the following into the 'Open:' space,then press OK
D:\setup.exe
If your cd-rom drive is using a different drive letter,edit the above.

| | I tried that in both drives, it opens to freeze up on either one. I tried to open it via task manager, it opens and freezes up there too. It seems the disc spins, reads, then stops spinning after a while. I was also able to "read" the disc but it would not open the exe prog. and while doing all this it takes an enormous amoun of time to even open the page, that is if it opens. I'm getting frustrated.....please....any idea? |
