Hi Ronny,
I’m not sure you fully understand, as in your last two posts your advice steps start by asking me to first uninstall CIS.
By default I remove CIS immediately after one of the many failed installation attempts, because in the process of finalising the install - as the computer restarts & I sign into the user account I’m here left hanging on the welcome screen. So I usually force shutdown, reboot in safe mode & remove CIS straight away before rebooting once more in normal mode, otherwise I would be unable to communicate with this forum.
I can reboot a couple of times though.
I’ll mark the time & give it a go & then post the error logs.
First ran Kaspersky removal tool as standard and returned “Kaspersky Anti Virus was not detected”, so ran again from Command Prompt but whichever way I entered the command I returned “(command) is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file”
Though I’m pretty certain that there are no operating shreds of Kaspersky left now after running Revo uninstaller, CCleaner, Registry Mechanic & also Autoruns as suggested by Eric.
There is deffo something wrong with your system, all those red alerts should not show up…
I think you have to find the first red alert error after system startup, that will probably cause the rest to fail also…
Not sure, hard to say like this… do you have any idea what could have started these issues?
Did you have any trouble with any software and/or malware infection etc?
How far do you need to go back in the eventlog to see when the red alerts stop like these? That could give a clue about when what happend…
I had a crash last year about 8 - 10 months ago where I was unable to regain access to my user account & after muddling around for a bit the only thing I could figure out to do was create a new user account, I never did get to the bottom of it (possible conflict with Apple Quicktime, I remember my DVD drive wasn’t recognized).
So more than likely the problem goes back much further!
On looking at the Error logs they go back to when I first got the computer in May 2007, the instances start to get heavier in July 2007.
The first instance of the Error log with Windows Defender was in June last year, the first instance of a DCOM Error (server register timeout) was the day before.
As far as I am aware I have never had a malware infection.
At the moment I’ve installed Avast as I needed the security & my patience had worn thin with Comodo CIS, so am loath to meddle now without good reason.
Could you explain the reason behind pressing Ctrl-Alt-Delete as a possible fix for this problem, allowing the boot to complete?!
