I'm a little confused with your last instructions. I ran the 5 stages of Chkdsk. I then tried to run step 3 of Windows Repair and got the same message when asked to insert my windows cd. Should I try to run sfc /scannow next or go to the regedit run next?

BTW it took about 3 hours to run the 5 stages of Chkdsk (for waht its worth).

10. Once the CD is created, boot from it, and memtest will automatically start to run.

The running program will look something like this depending on the size and number of ram modules installed:

It's recommended to run 5-6 passes. Each pass contains very same

8 tests.

This will show the progress of the test. It can take a while. Be patient, or leave it running overnight.

The following image is the test results area:

The most important item here is the “errors” line. If you see ANY errors, even one, most likely, you have bad RAM.

I ran 6 passes with no errors. The dvd player was able to write and perform as a boot drive. Not sure what this tells me except my RAM is ok.
Internet Explorer has been much faster so that problem seems to be addressed. What next?

All the diagnostic reports came back okay...so no hardware issues.

I guess I'm good for now. Should I clean-up and un-install all the scanning programs?
