Is my hard drive dying? [Solved]
jmk909er:
OK I ran all the commands and the Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface is no longer showing in device manager at all. And there are no yellow alerts in the Non-Plug and Play Drivers when viewing Show hidden devices. I went through a restart and it is loading up properly. I will go through a few start up cycles and see how it does.
By the way thanks a lot for all your help. I will report back if its fixed or not.
Boggin:
What happened when you did Scan for hardware changes - did the Device Manager do what looked like a reset ?
I normally advise creating a restore point before uninstalling anything like that but I had success with that cmd when my Pseudo-Interface picked up a yellow alert.
Check your restore points as Windows may have recorded its uninstall.
Boggin:
Just as a matter of interest, did you click on View/Show hidden devices as the Pseudo-Interface isn't visible in Network adapters until you do.
If it's still missing and Windows hasn't recorded its uninstall, Action/Add legacy hardware has a MS one but I've never known if that is the same as the one that is normally installed as it isn't listed as a MS adapter.
These steps will reinstall it if needed, but manually create a restore point before executing them. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-hardware/how-to-install-teredo-tunneling-pseudo-interface/754c8f29-3a87-4e77-babd-a69c8910e17e

Hey Boggin, maybe I don't need it?? I have gone through 5 shutdowns and start ups and I have not gotten a single error and it is booting up like it is supposed to (almost seems a little faster)
I did click on View/Show hidden devices. I just now also checked it again, scan for new devices and show hidden and I don't see the Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface.
Do you think I should try to reinstall it or leave it alone?
Boggin:
While you may not need it yet, I would reinstall it http://superuser.com/questions/22290/what-is-the-teredo-tunneling-pseudo-interface
It was obviously the buggy driver that was causing the boot up problem, although I don't think you've mentioned you had this problem ?
Did you run the hostednetwork command as that can also aid boot up as they won't be there looking for an IP address.
