Simple solution- wipe the slate clean and start all over again. In other words do a whole re-install of the system. Sounds extreme? well it'll just take you an hour or so to do just that. It'll take you more than that to diagnose the problem and fix it, if even you can fix it at all. Why rack your brain over registry entries and what have you, when you can be be complete and done if you re-install everything on a fresh slate. Save all the important documents, Re-install and move everything back in. Simple!!! I remember a friend trying to fix a friends buggy windows, he spent more than 5 hours trying, in the end it was of no avail. He ended up re-installing everything. Now had he listened to me in the begining he would have saved himself 5 whole hours!!!
