[GangstaRap]

I tryed to open the System Information tool but it wont open!
i tryed to do it by clickin "start" > "Programs" > "Accessories" > "System tools" > "System information" - but nothing happened!
i''ve also tryed to do it through "Start" > "Run" > msinfo32.exe - but nothing!
any ideas?

any help appreciated!
Thanks!

Maybe msinfo32.exe or one of its dependants has become damaged by a virus or a power loss/bad shutdown.

First do a complete virus scan, then do a complete hard disk check/repair.

mh2360, Thanks for the reply!
i'll try!

Also try using the run command. open run
type cmd
then type in the command prompt window sfc /scannow
that will check for corrupted or missing files.

Try a test and see if Ctrl-Alt-Del brings up the Task Manager.

mh2360, didnt came up...

TBoneit, thanks for the reply man!

Also try using the run command. open run
type cmd
then type in the command prompt window sfc /scannow.

is this scan gonna replace hardware drivers too?
cause some of my hardware drivers dont have microsoft signature... (installed them from a CD)

thanks for your help!

No, it only checks the windows components. Not drivers. It checks to see if they are missing, corrupted etc.

TBoneit,
it didnt help man!
i guess i'll just repair the OS and it'll fix it...
thanks anyway!

A repair will not fix it if it is due to some kind of Malware
