I found where you make the start menu items small so it won't disappear on me anymore when something else gets installed. Quick note to let you know that I didn't get around to rebooting til like 9:25 and it did not go into a BSOD or a scan?? Just did a normal reboot. I even tried it again and it did show the error message asking if I wanted to do the scan with the next reboot and I checked yes and immediately went into a reboot and again, it was only a normal reboot. Now I did try clicking the 2nd option and it did go immediately into the scan, but I needed to turn the pc off for the night so I just rebooted and turned everything off. We're off to hubby's oncologist in a bit so I won't be around for a while, but i'll be back this afternoon.
