About three days ago the task bar has been unresponsive
upon starting windows. Luckily the recycle bin and the
AOL icons were on my desktop, by the way I have XP
Professional. So since I couldn't access anything on my
task bar which by the way showed a loading icon whenever I
pointed the cursor on it, but like I was saying, it
appeared that logging on to AOL had made somehow the task
bar to be functional everytime.
Other than that it wouldn't be if you're following me...
So I contacted AOL and they told me that it's not the AOL
software that's causing the problem, they said it may be
that the windows registry or something was damaged and
that they suggested that I format my hard drive(which I
already had in mind), but upon trying to do that, an error
message shows up, what I do is second click my hard drive,
click "format", check in "quick format", "start" and the
error message reads "Windows was unable to complete the
format".
Please help me with this issue, I've saved all my
important files on a disc and basically what I want to do
is format my hard drive and use Windows XP as a boot up.
