Repairing Pavilion dv6-1230us

can you use a notepad file ? it came up out of nowhere, just popped up on the (laptop) screen with all of the information in one box.

this laptop computer is completely whacky now.  while trying to click on this file, the screen kept blacking out and resizing - every time i moved the mouse the screen would change.  i finally got quicker than the screen and clicked on the file and then 'open' and managed to complete the task.  the screen has never acted that badly before.

Boggin:
That is AdwCleaner's Report - can you let me know what is in the lower pane after the Scan has completed ?

You can safely click on Cleaning for what it lists in its report, but it will also delete what was listed in the lower pane and take out programs you may want to keep.

It will list another report after Cleaning and the restart to show what it has deleted.

EDIT - You may have to reinstall Slimware's driver updater program, but that may have been responsible for some of those other items except Conduit which is a PuP and should be got rid of.

I used to have that driver updater program and SuperAntiSpyware used to snag adware that came with it, but that wasn't the reason I uninstalled driver updater.

Boggin,

No I cannot see the bottom left of the pane for some reason ... even on the other tabs, there is information off the screen I cannot get to.  Even double clicking the top bar does not resize the screen and there is nothing at the top besides the red X to close the window.

Boggin:
Okay then - close the report then click on Cleaning to see if improves matters.

BumFuzzled:
You know, mr boggin ;)  ... you may as well being speaking Greek to me with stuff like this ...

I am way out of my league on this website, and I know that.  You have been unbelievably kind and patient with me.  I surely appreciate it and hope you will stick with me to the end   :shy:
