My laptop is running vista 32....recently it started after id shutdown
to start not responding on all of the windows, i ran
virus/spyware/adaware did registry cleaners such as reg mech and reg
cure, cleaned up the pc and nothing was fixed, so i then went and
updated any drivers that needed to be updated. I still have the problem
but i can at least get onto the web which i couldnt previously or run
any programmes, they do become unreponsive especialy if theres more than
one. i get a lot of script errors too and i have just installed the
latest java...now when i switch on i get a black screen with
personalised settings not responding aswell...now i do not have any
system restore points to use as they were taken up by fixers, i have
spent 4 continous days trying to fix this laptop and am lost

If you can't solve the problem in 4 days, start again. Backup your personal
files and reinstall Vista.

Even MS admit that Vista is far from perfect and would probably suggest you
reinstall. A lot of problems found in Vista just can't be solved - hey,
that's life with Vista

Good luck

NEVER use registry cleaners. At best, they accomplish nothing; and at worst,
they can help to hose your system as you found out.

Do as Warren suggested and reload your system. Use a good freeware antivirus
program; I like Avira. Even though it comes with an annoying nag screen when
it updates, it has worked very well for me.

Install Malwarebytes Antimalware and Superantispyware to keep other nasties
off your machine. And get rid of the registry cleaners.

Why use Avira if it comes with an annoying nag screen? Use AVAST FREE or
AVG FREE. No nagging screen and they both work well.

Well.... there are ways to turn it off. Google "disable Avira nag screen".
Avira has a small resource footprint and works well on lesser machines,
although machines meant for Vista generally have the resources. Avast and AVG
(in particular) have been getting panned for not being as good as they used
to be over in the XP newsgroups. I'll stick with Avira.
