A friends computer as reverted back to an earlier time possibly when the computer was first booted up, the reason i think this is because the free software that comes with computes like norton anti virus request installing.
Originally her brother gave her this computer so i dont know the full history of the computer, but its lost al her personal data.
This is a hewllet packard computer.
O/S Vista home premium. 32-bit
AMD Athlon (tm)64 bit processor
RAM 1918mb
Ive thought of running the hP recovery partition but the bar indicating the amount of storage used is coloured red were it is normally blue.
Thanks for any help jhadd
