there might already be a post on here about this im not sure but i have spent 3 days now trying to fix it and i honestly dont have time to read through all the threads so sorry if i missed it.

ok here's the problem my pc was working fine monday night i had installed java earlier in the day and was playing Harvest Mania on it til late monday night.
got up tuesday morning it wouldnt do anything i switched over from ie7 to ie8 a few weeks ago and the only problem i had was the web page trying to close then it would say tab has been recovered so i didnt think much about it.
well pogo wouldnt work so i uninstalled java and ie8 just to switch back,,, and it showed ie8 was off. it went back 2 ie7 for about an hour. i closed the page and went to openit again a few minutes later and now i have no tool button no favorites tab cant paste and copy. the internet tab at the bottom is just the letter e it doesnt tell you the name of the site your on.

i have spent 3 nerve wracking days non stop trying to fix this and i cant at all.
i tried to uninstall ie8 again and now it says copy error when deleting.

some 1 suggested i try 2 reinstall ie8 but now i cant download anything at all either so now what???
i have been to every web site there is and tried all the suggestions offered nothing has worked
if you have any ideas please share them with me. i have had my share of computer problems over the years and most of them i can fix on my own but this has me completely stumped.

if you can help at all thanks!!!

well if that didn't work and you can't download anything then maybe a family or nearby friend could download IE7 or IE8 and save it to a CD or flash drive and give it to you and you can try installing it that way.

thank you very much

You are welcome, I hope it works!

Also, maybe you could download something from your email. You could try having it sent there also to see.

Well..........if all else fails....you could always reformat your hard drive. I know that seems drastic but you never know, you may have some sort of virus or something that is messing up your IE 8/IE7. This way....everything is fresh.

Just back up your important files and wipe it clean. Just my 2 cents worth.......

CrazyMan and Hocky just wanted to let you know that i being not at all as smart as i thought i was when it comes to computers took it upon myself to try 2 fix it!! huge mistake i found the windows xp disc but instead of taking everything off i tried to update it and of course after (i started no turning back now) it said the disc wasnt any good andi couldnt do anything at All after that it just kept rebooting saying the same thing over and over ugh>>>

well the moral of the story is my husband bought me a brand new computer with a 19 inch widescreen monitor cd/dvd burner yay me. hell if i would have known that sooner i would of done tore it up lmao

but seriously i just wanted to take the time and THANK U BOTH FOR OFFERING HELP I REALLY appreciate it!!!

hugs to u both....

Congrats on the new puter! Yeah if I tore mine up I am sure my hubby would do the same for me.....I always get my way for stuff like that.

If you bought the 150 package make sure you email badgehelp to reset your page....or if you didnt then make sure you have your receipts for the ones you did purchase to have new passwords sent to you.

Good luck and happy cheating on your new machine!
