I don't know what's going on. I uninstalled a utility I haven't used in a while and rebooted afterwards. When my pc came back up my mouse wasn't working properly (I could move it but couldn't click anything). I put it on the charger and plugged in an old mouse and rebooted again as it wasn't being detected. The pc came back up but now everything was going south.
The xp theme was changed to the classic one. I went into display properties to change it back but the jump box only had one choice - classic.
The desktop was stuck on the "active desktop could not be restored" screen.
I have no Internet access. I've tried resetting the modem, etc but nothing seems to work. That makes trying to fix anything almost impossible. I'm typing this from my iPhone.
I get several stop codes but Google yields no results when searching them.
0x7564d3ba
0x77600741
0x75606eb5
I tried to do a system restore but the final click I need to make to start the restore does nothing. It's like I'm not even clicking it.
I looked around for anything out of the ordinary and found a couple things right away. In device manager, there is a yellow exclamation mark next to "Other Devices". When I expand that, there is another next to the only option, "SM Bus Controller".
I cannot open either of my hard drives. Clicking on my backup drive does nothing and clicking on my C drive gives another error:
Windows cannot find 'RECYCLER\S-1-0-29-100021450-100007094-8170.com'. Make sure you have typed the name correctly ........ (etc)
Any ideas?
