Hi Andrew, I'm running xp pro sp3 and sfc works fine. The only thing that matters is that the same files are on both computer and cd.

                    John.

Hi,

This is possible on the desktop, not sure about laptop since it has a
Toshiba recovery disk which is an image of the original factory install.

I have never used sfc under Windows XP, and especially with the addition
of service packs etc not sure how this works.

Thanks.
Andrew.

Hi Dorothy, how was the desktop loaded? Did they give you a cd, or has
it
got a recovery partition?
 Although I've never run sfc using an OEM cd, like the one you have
for
your laptop it should work. The main thing is that the system files on
the
computer are the same as those on the cd.
                  John.

Dorothy, programs appear in the system tray because they're running.
The
way to clear your system tray is to stop programs loading at
startup.
The
higher the number of programs allowed to start with windows the
slower
your computer's going to be. They all use up resources.
 The only two programs that run at startup on my computer are AVG
and
Jaws. There really is no reason to have everything running at
startup.
 If you go to start, then run, type msconfig and press enter the
system
configuration window will open. If you back tab till you're on the
tabs,
then arrow to the startup tab, then press tab to get onto the
startup
list. Everything in that list is starting with windows. The more of
it
you
uncheck the better. If you're not happy doing it yourself you could
get
help doing it. When you've unchecked what you want to uncheck tab
down
to
ok and press enter or activate with the spacebar. You'll get a
prompt to
reboot. click yes. Your computer will reboot. You'll get a message
when
your computer starts to say that you are running in selective mode.
There's a check box to stop the message being shown again. Check it
and
press enter. That's it.
                    John.
