    Default Computer Troubles, Solutions & Tips

    As I'm renowned for regularly having catastrophic disasters with my PC (and eventually sorting them out), all due to my inveterate tinkering, so I thought a thread like this might be useful. This is intended to be non Hi-Fi related and just for computer users (as we all are) to put questions and to offer possible solutions regarding any snags encountered.

    I just had a nasty, pernicious 'Adware' invasion, which I got rid of after much faffing about. Using Safe Mode and System Restore failed to clear it. Spybot and MalwareBytes failed to kill it, MSE was useless. Eventually I found AdwCleaner, free on Download.com, which cleared the nasty little infection successfully.

    Knowing me, it's just a matter of time before I cock something up again. I usually have to reinstall the operating system about three times a year!

    Anyway. Please post any woes or tips!

    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
