Spot On voyagerfan99 :) That was the problem! I checked the seating though it looked good and still wouldn't boot. Put a fresh stick of memory in Dimm slot C and it took right off and Boots To Bios just fine now. Slot D is empty right now, but I bought memory a couple days ago. Nice...

Thanks voyagerfan99, I'll put that to the top of my list. Trying the simplest first. Already tried the Power button variations which didn't help.

I bought a Dell Precision M6400 (#2) recently on Ebay and it arrived earlier today. Cosmetically the unit looks new, like it's seldom been used. I need some advice because it just won't Boot To the Bios screen. The unit came without a HDD. When I power on it will not Boot To Bios and I...

I tried the dropdown but with mixed results. I think its scripting or something because I don't have that problem on other sites. Did a search but nothing very close to my problem. Thanks, JK

I had tried that but I get nothing. Seems to mainly happen only on Amazon--with most other sites I don't have that problem.

Not sure where to post this. I have IE8 on a Dell D600, Windows XP Pro and sometimes my browser back button (previous page) doesn't work and sometimes it does. I had the same problem with IE7 too and it only happens on some websites...sometimes. Today, it doesn't work when I'm on Amazon...

your installer links don't work for me. I found the instructions for manual install and that worked fine.

About 10 days ago I had a Malware problem which John35 fixed. I uninstalled my Adobe Flash Player, Adobe Reader and Shockwave. I installed PDF X-Change intsead of Adobe Reader which was a big bloated program. Now I can't install Adobe Flash Player. I used both Control Panel and the Adobe...

Everything seems fine and I have done many scans and been on the internet for 10 hours and this old Dell D600 is very snappy now. No more crazy infections. I even went to Dell and updated the Bios and Chipset Drvrs. I had to install Microsoft Netframe Program w/updates (Dell's...

I downloaded Ccleaner and it cleaned up 70MB. Registry scan fixed 4 incomplete Zonealarm items and deleted 3 Symantec fragments. Thanks again John. Still don't know what the xxflb is but...

Ok, I just did the HJT Fix on those 7 items. Thanks for all your help. I really needed it and I learned abit too. I also uninstalled the Zonealarm Toolbar since I don't use it. This laptop is so much faster now. Do you think I should try Ccleaner?

I have to agree with John's view. I'm a very careful user on the internet and there are just too many ways to get infected. Couple months ago I click on a story at the New York Times and---Avast pops up with a Block on a virus I almost got. To be safe I didn't open the NYT again that day...

Update: Today I am finally on the internet with this laptop first time since Monday. I ran into alot of problems with the new modem/router and after a friend spent nearly 2 hours on the phone with IP tech support it finally works. I was immediately able to do a current update of...

Thanks John, I'm down for today and maybe tomorrow. Yesterday around noon seems the router died so they're sending a new one. Funny, it died just when I went to check Microsoft Updates and at first I though some Malware attack or virus had blocked IE. I hope to be back on the internet tomorrow.

I scanned again SuperAntiSpy and Avast and so far I am clean. Also the IO Security 360 which I uninstalled was an AntiMalware program not Antivirus. But, Malwarebytes snagged these items, and I can't update Malwarebytes: www.malwarebytes.org Database version: 4052 Windows...

I also just ran an Avast quick scan and had 4 threats: Alueron-fz, int-downloader and 2 others. I can't copy paste or save the logs. I've never had so many attacks, usually when I scan Malwarebytes or Avast I get nothing. Last 5 days I feel like I'm breeding infections. Or I've got an open...

Thanks John I uninstalled most of those programs, more tomorrow. Avast keeps blocking junk thrown at me while I'm on the internet. Probably 5 blocks per day which is a very new thing. Scan just showed another copy of WIN32 Alueron-cy. This all began within the last week previously I seldom...

I downloaded and saved Malwarebytes set-up application file on my desktop, 6MB. File is not listed in my control panel add/remove or on programs with uninstall option. Can I just delete this Icon and Malwarebytes by right clicking on the desktop Icon? I ran an uninstall but the Icon is still...
