Hi,

My wife installed some crappy old software on my XP machine while I was
away and after she deleted it (because it wouldn't even run) I am now
getting three new hardware detection wizards whenever I power up the
machine. Plus the machine is also taking forever to shut down now.

Could anyone help me please? A registry edit maybe? It is really
annoying.

Thank you.
Have you tried System Restore to a previous date?

No. Can't. Someone turned off System Restore so there is no going back.

Any other ideas?

Thanks.
