Hello inkster

Try and find some vista disks and do a system restore?

You do not need a Vista disk to perform a system restore, the restore points are already saved on your machine (you only need a vista disk for system file checker to replace the damaged files).

Information on how to perform the system restore can be found in the link I provided earlier (post number 36).


Before you give system restore a try lets try one last thing:


  • Please un-install Bing Bar


    • Click on "Windows Orb" then on "Computer" and then on the "Uninstall or change a program" tab.
    • A list of currently installed programs will be displayed.
    • Find the "Bing Bar" program, click on it once and then click on the "uninstall" button.
    • If you are prompted to re-boot your computer to complete the uninstall please do so.

    If uninstalling the toolbar does not help, I can only suggest that you try a System Restore if you have not already tried the clean startup instructions I provided earlier.

    Should you require any additional support when trying the System Restore please start a new thread in the Windows forum.

    Since your system logs are coming back clean we will have to remove our tools:


  • Please Uninstall Combofix


    • Hold down the Windows key (has the Windows symbol on it) and press the "R" key.
    • A Run box will open.
    • Type combofix /uninstall in the run box and click "OK". Please note the space between the "x" and the "/Uninstall", it needs to be there.

  • Removal of Tools


    • DDS, aswMBR, Systemlook and Junkware Removal Tool can be deleted from your machine.

    Best wishes,

    JonTom
