Howdy - So I imagine my system is still in some kind of jeopardy, but I do not know exactly what kind. How do I check?
Boggin:
Run a chkdsk /f followed by sfc /scannow and see what each report.
To view the chkdsk log, go Start - type eventvwr and press enter.
When Event Viewer opens ensure Event Viewer (Local) is highlighted in the left pane - if it isn't then just click on it.
When it has read the data expand Windows Log - click on Application/Action/Find then type chkdsk or wininit into the Find box and press enter.
Cancel the Find box and read the log in the scrollable window.
I've already described this but if the sfc /scannow reports it cannot repair some files as it did before, then copy & paste this cmd to the cmd prompt and press enter.
findstr /c:"[SR]" %windir%\Logs\CBS\CBS.log > %userprofile%\Desktop\sfcdetails.txt
This will put an icon onto the desktop which when double clicked will open the CBS log in Notepad which you can then copy & paste into the reply box.
This is why it was suggested that you perform a repair install but if your machine works okay even with irreparable files then do the repair install at your discretion.
Sometimes you can ignore a report of an irreparable file as it can be the result of a Windows Update.

I don't know why it is snagging that Netgear if that is your wireless dongle.
Can you go to Device Manager/View/Show hidden devices and check for any yellow alerts - you may need to expand Network adapters and Non-Plug and Play Drivers.
I don't know if you can get a driver update for the dongle, but if you aren't getting any connectivity problems then I'd ignore that error.
BTW - Is AOMEI a paid for or free program ?

Hi B,
I learned that I needed assistance uninstalling programs; that helped a lot of previous errors;
I would suggest that you ask people to download a "total uninstaller" program to uninstall programs they want to re-install. this will help problems in the areas of uninstalling what people also simply want to uninstall.

hehe lol - Aventis went from not wanting to send me the active adapters to having someone come day and install a new motherboard. Long story, but in short AMD said it was the motherboard that was damaged by the W7000 card that got loose during shipment as it was not put in properly. I thinks someone lost theri job. But, the Technical Manager, Robert Martin, stood up for me and resolved the adapter issue and is getting a man down here Tuesday to install the new MB. So, we shall see.

Sounds like a decent bit of Customer Service - hope all goes well.
