Had a rock solid system for quite some time..
June 4th,come home from work to a messed up desktop
ERROR.. "EXPLORER.EXE unable to find UxTheme.dll"...It
did this on it's own from being in stand-by....no taskbar
or icons..
OK..the computer wants to play...So I get in the only way
I can with Command Prompt and UxTheme.dll is totally
vanished from dllcache and system32..OK I copy the dll
back in and get up and running..I get all latest updates
from XP and Norton and Spy-Sweep and can't find a damn
thing...Norton did a whacky thing..it actually did STOP
in the middle of the sweep to make a report to microsoft
and it was locked on to a file called navw32.exe...now
that raises concern to me..but Norton never quarantined
anything...I continue to updat applications such as CD
burner software...I defrag and run sweeps and everthing
seems dandy again... Then the next day...the computer
shuts-off and restarts all on it's own..no application
running...Then the icons are not responding...then re-
boot..Then I open WORD and it wants to be in SAFE MODE...
Then after additional re-boot and updates everything
seems quiet on the front...then this morning I am just
looking at the desktop and it decides to re-boot on it's
own, icons locked up again.......I re-boot and so far so
good...I had enough of this...
Any insight would be appreciated...
Thanks
