No problem at all. We will work together and take things one step at a time. If there is anything you are unsure about just stop and ask me - its what I am here for :)

Before we run some system scans it would be helpful to know what operating system is installed on your machine.

When you start the machine and the computer begins to load you will see a screen that displays the name of the operating system. It will (most likely) be either Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7.

Please let me know which one it is in your next reply :)
