    Haha I know it was dumb..... and I was going to post that too lol sorry broni, wont do it again.... yea I restored it to like 4 days before this "event" occured.  O and I had asked a few people about the long load time on my computer, and they said its probably fine.  Because after it pauses for a while on the microsoft corporation screen, everything else goes fast.  while some computers pause a while on the welcome screen or the likes, my comp just likes to load early I guess :)

        I think Rightmark doesn't require installation, so just deleting its folder will do.

          Is program closed?
          If so, use Unlocker: http://ccollomb.free.fr/unlocker/
          It'll give you an option to delete file(s) upon reboot.

            Double check, if it's there. If so, ignore alert.

              Go Start>Control Panel>Program & Features, click on "View installed updates" in left pane, and look for Service Pack for Microsoft Windows (KB 936330)

                  Okay, so you know how ive been whiney about how my computer stops on the "microsoft corp." screen?  well I found this and I am wondering if i should follow it.... perhaps it can speed up my computer?

                  From windows help forums:

                  Have been searching the forum for months trying to find a solution to the halting installation, usually thought to have been associated with crcdisk.sys.The problem is in fact caused by pcmcia.sys files! To get round this, you need to delete or rename two files, but this can't be done from the safe mode command prompt, due to permissions.Instead, reboot from the install dvd and go to repair, then command prompt. Locate and rename the following files...Navigate to: c:\windows\system32\drivers\   Rename pcmcia.sys pcmcia.oldNavigate to: c:\windows\system32\driverstore\filerepository\   Rename pcmcia.inf_539d553e pcmcia.inf_539d553eoldTried it on my computer and it worked great, figure you already know this but maybe by chance someone else is looking and this is what they get first
