Is it just me?

Wednesday, June 27, 2012 by RedneckDude | Discussion: Personal Computing

Anyone other than me seeing this?   I have checked with several people and I seem to be the only one....

.....couldn't even make up my mind which 'stupid' pic to put up, although, in your case, any and all are appropriate.

Jim... try turning off all your browser extensions and rebooting. then turn them back on one at a time until you find the problem.

That will take forever!  Turn on half of them, then if it works, turn on half of the remaining... and if it doesn't, turn off half of the ones that you turned on to start with. 

Actually, just leave them all off forever.  That'll be better for everyone.

No extensions other than the default, but I did those...no help. I reset IE9 back to all defaults, no help. Uninstalled it, installed IE8, fixed it.

 

Now I can't install IE9, I get errors and the install fails.

I blame skinhit.

OK, finally. After several reboots, windows update finally let me install IE9. All is well now.

 

Odd thing was my Acronis backup failed to restore. Dunno what's up with that.

Did you try a  chkdsk /f /r ?

 

btw - you never mentioned browser identity...

chkdsk /f /r would be better, I believe, since it does an sfc /scannow as part of its 5 parts.

Might better read, "I didn't mention IE9 until reply 10."

chk dsk /f - fixes errors on the disk, chk dsk /r - Locates  bad sectors and recovers readable information (implies /f)

Why would chk dsk /f /r have anything to do with IE9 or google?

would also fix disk errors which might have caused the problem as well as doing repair work on your system files. if that didn't work uninstall reinstall might... but apparently, there's another problem since your Acronis isn't working.

Apparently, Yrag may be correct....I guess you have to begin Acronis recovery from the disc. Acronis working fine.
