Okay, I ran those 2 steps of your Tweaking and created a new user. To be sure I understand what are my next steps? Do I use the Windows 7 DVD or Windows 7 SP1 DVD? Am I to switch to the new user then follow your guidelines? I await your directions!

BTW, my name is Vic and I am in Texas near Dallas.

Use Windows 7 SP1 DVD

Follow the link that tells you how to do it and do it under the new user account

Give it an hour at most. None the less let it finish even if it fails.

Ran another attempt having removing all that setup complained about but same results. Message this morning that it restored my old version and it had in deed. Thanks all your help but it is beginning to look like a lost cause with no message indicating what I could do to make it work.

Looks like a fresh install would be best. But that will be up to you

At least you have the disk if you decide to. Also if you do a fresh install tell the setup NOT to format the drive. It will move all your profiles, program files and windows to a Windows.old folder. Which from there you can copy you data and such back over. You will still need to reinstall your programs though.

Thanks and I do appreciate all the advice and support/help you have provided to me. I have to wonder if this occurred when I upgraded from the OEM version that was on the machine when I bought it and the retail version I put on later. We'll probably never know what was the cause and that bugs this old man.

Interesting, I have been having trouble with PCPitstop since all the attempts and today one of the things the suggested I do was to download your AIO and run it! Just thought you would like to know that tidbit.

I gave up and went to clean install and it doesn't recognize/install driver for my Internet router and now I am in deep you know what! I still have Windows 8 working okay on the other HD SO I can use email and downloads so any hints on getting the ethernet driver working on 7?

Missasip1938 · « **Reply #37 on:** January 03, 2013, 04:01:18 pm »

I downloaded the Intel ethernet driver and now for the really hard part reinstalling many, many programs that I had setup. Didn't see a Windows 0ld folder yet but just got started with it.

Glad you got the network drivers, make sure to get any other drivers you need.

The Windows.old folder will be on the root of the C: drive

(As long as you didnt format the drive of course)

I didn't format the HD but did do a clean install from the DVD of Windows 7 SP1 that I downloaded from link you provided. Everything seems to be working okay so far and the program that caused me all the problems works ok now.

Don't see any "Windows-old" afraid I screwed up and wiped it out with my clean install.

Missasip1938 · « **Reply #40 on:** January 03, 2013, 10:22:48 pm »

Fortunately for me I backup the drive every night and keep 3 days of copies with Macium Reflect. I found old document files from the drive and have been copying back to HD and that is saving the data files I thought I had lost.

Good to hear. Your system is working properly and you files are being restored
