I am a new member & hopefully I'm posting this in the right place for this topic. I have a HP Media Center PC running Windows XP. Back in February, I made a decision to upgrade to IE 7 from IE 6. I decided this past weekend that I wanted to revert back to IE 6. To keep this short, basically I did several things in trying to uninstall 7, tried uninstall from "add/remove" section, used a restore point to restore my system back a few days, etc. etc. My system became so buggy I had to get a tech out yesterday to get all my favorites back, completely remove IE 7 & get me back to IE 6. The problem now is that IE 6 is running much slower than it used to taking a long time to pull up sites from my favorites or those that I type into the address bar. Before the tech left, he cleaned out all my cookies, temp files, ran a spyware program, etc. However I didn't notice the slow explorer problem until after he left. I know enough about computers to be dangerous, but I'm guessing that maybe I have a corrupt registry, windows or something. (BTW, I'm using DSL for my internet).
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do? How difficult is it to re-install Windows XP or should I? I have an OEM system so I didn't get any OS CD's with the unit. I understand all that's somewhere partitioned on my system....
Any help would be appreciated..
Thanks,
Ken
