Fixed!!

Post #391,572 by hnick 7/5/14 1:04:02 PM Reply	Fixed!! This is posted from the winders version. I got a program from Tweaking.com called Windows Repair (All in One) that mostly used MS system tools and put everything back in place. Very cool. E-mail works again. As does chrome. It's time consuming, but I got some time to spend with the problem dog, so that worked out well. Thanks all! Much appreciated! -Hugh "Religion, n.

I use it mostly for development work, which is not in demand since I'm doing embedded C stuff now with a different compiler, and Sudoko. I'd miss the Sudoko, but it's not essential.

It seems to work very well with Linux... not so sure about Windows on Windows though. -- greg@gregfolkert.net "No snowflake in an avalanche ever feels responsible." --Stanislaw Jerzy Lec
Post #391,581 by hnick 7/5/14 3:44:33 PM Reply	Me too. We used VM ware at Cisco but that was then and I no longer have access. I use VM as virtual machine rather than the product. I'm thinking of just reinstalling VBox with a new Debian image. I'll make the base image about 40Gb instead of the 4 that they recommend. I think it's 4. Been a while.

In the vm, remove the interface.Then in the vm control panel remove the interface, then re-install it. Go back into the vm and install the interface.

Post #391,602 by hnick 7/6/14 2:50:34 PM Reply	I removed everything I could find. That had to do with Oracle VM. I can't reinstall it. The windows msi engine will not remove files that have been changed. There is probably something lurking somewhere that causes the msi engine to shit itself, but it won't clean it up when uninstalling. The only reason that I'm worried is that the VM let me talk to the net when winders was buggered. "Religion, n.

There's a freeware version that may do the job for you: http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html Good luck. Cheers, Scott.
