This is my fisrt time posting. But my computer was infected with frmwrk 32 and i need help getting rid of it.

How do you know you are infected with it?
Do you have an anti-virus installed? -It just I would expect the anti-virus to remove it for you.

It maybe worthwhile trying to dual boot your system. I would shrink the partition with vista on and make another partition and put xp on that one. This way you can use both, if you use easyBCD you can choose to go back to XP, Vista or stick with both.

I have a HP laptop and have Vista preinstalled. I got XP and put that on as well, I suggest contacting HP support on their website. They gave me some drivers that are compatable with my laptop. Use your serial number to find drivers for your product on the HP website, they sometimes have XP drivers there.

The above assumes your new computer is from HP, if it isn't contact whoever you bought it off for XP advice.

Thanks for the info, I am cautiously going ahead with the install.

Do you login to msn through internet explorer?

What firewall program if any, are you using?

Yes Both my laptop and desktop have AMD processors. Why doesn't SP3 like it?

Hi I have just reinstalled windows XP on my deskytop computer and I'am wondering if it is worthwhile putting XP SP3 on it.

I have put SP3 on my laptop and it is now really slow, I have done this twice on my laptop, is it SP3 or is it something else?

Does any one else have similar issues?

Hi just lettin you know you can try CS4 adobe photoshop for free(and legal) from adobe themselves, all you need to do is create an account I have done this myself for one of my assignments.

Just lettin you know for when you get the problem solved.

Does Ctrl+Alt+Del work? if it comes up try going to file -> run(new task) and type in explorer.exe and press enter.

Can you tell us what the error message was.

Here is the code I have so far:

I am trying to create a 3d blasterball like game. So far I have a box with a ball and bat inside. The ball bounces around in the box and you click and drag the bat were you want it inside the box. I cant get them running at the same time.

Hi I was wondering if anyone can help me. I am trying to create a game in visual python and have come to a complete stop. I need to be able to run many while loops at the same time, i have looked into threading but can't get my head around it. Any help would be appreciated, thank you.
