This is what I would do, but you are welcome to wait a while and see what other people suggest as some users are more techie than I am. Is the computer functioning normally? Does it boot up in the usual time? Can you try various programmes to ensure they operate as normal?
Have you got a video DVD to try out the graphics drivers, when google earth failed may be it had gone down or a part of it had. Can you check you have the correct NRT there are different ones for different Norton products. Disconnect from the internet or disable the wifi before removing Norton. YES to all 3 of those. A DVD won't play. So the Norton upgrade to But if I upgrade to the latest driver then it messes up norton as I mentioned in my first post. You have mentioned another computer it might be wise to download it to the other computer and transfer it to the problem computer, as there is no security on the problem computer.
Has the other computer got its own save downloaded copy that was downloaded separately to the problem computer? Meaning your not sharing one download. On the left hand pane of the c cleaner user interface there are check boxes that can be unchecked so that the files in these locations will not be deleted.
I've used it for years, and it's very safe, but Windows does a pretty good job of managing the registry. Let's get you up and running, first. In fact, my advice would be to avoid registry cleaners ,period. They can do more harm, than good. After my last post I cane across some other information, which is if you update your graphics drivers you need to update your display drivers at the same time.
Try the below. Check with a videodisc. Install Norton restart then get updates restart and recheck for updates until there are no more up dates. Check Norton and with a videodisc. Have you ever had any other security software on the computer like a trial version, of even Norton?
Thanks once again for your help. I did update my display drivers and not my graphics driver so I will try that.
I don't know what you mean about a videodisc. My computer did come with McAfee trial and I removed it completely when I first bought the computer then put on Norton and Norton worked great for a year till the latest upgrade. Furthermore plse tell us the exact model of your Toshiba laptop - Cxxxx and the model no. I went back to the old driver which is 8. How it would mess up norton is explained in my earlier posts.
I tried up trouble shooter in google earth and the only thing that worked was upgrading the driver but that did not work out good as I esplained earlier. Have you got the latest version of IE for windows 7, I know some people have a preference for the version they have? Try downloading the graphics drivers again and identify in a recognisable way from the other drivers, download from the Toshiba website.
In the past it was recommended that the NRT be run twice. When reposting can you provide answers to the questions and the findings on the tasks carried out? You need to carry out the above before doing this, which is to log into your Norton account put the version you have on the problem computer in the bin and then uninstall as above and download the new version and restart and then get updates until there are no more updates restarting after every update.

How satisfied are you with this reply? Thanks for your feedback, it helps us improve the site. In reply to A. User's post on May 21, I uninstalled my anti virus software and tested if it worked by openingchrome because that's usually when the error messages came up. Nothing happened so I began running scans with windows defender.
While Windows Defender was scabbing though an error box came up, my screen went black, and i was forced to restart my computer.
So I'm going to try the second method and perform a clean boot. By the way the error messeges are usually like "The instruction at 0xBB 0 referenced memory" or "Your computer is low on memory". Hope this info helps I'll come back to you after clean booting. In reply to SaiChilukoori's post on May 21, In reply to trbogt's post on May 22, I've been using my computer for a couple of hours straight now, and I haven't come across any errors.
I still jave no idea what exactly caused the situation in the first place and how I managed to fix it. Hopefully the problem doesn't re-emerge. Thank you all for your help! In reply to SaiChilukoori's post on May 22, Please help this issue is really worrying me now!!
In reply to SaiChilukoori's post on May 23, In reply to trbogt's post on May 23, Update: I figured out how to fix it. The only way I could fix theissue was to go into msconfig and remove all programs from start up except for the Microsoft ones. I did that before and it worked but I think I undid those settings somehow causing the errors to reappear. I don't think it has anything to do with my anti virus. Does an antivirus slow down a computer?
