Windows Firewall/ICS will not start.

Work on my aunts old Dell Dimension 3000 with XP Home Edition. She had downloaded about 5 to 6 cents free games and the 75g hard drive was full of 97% and I had to boot into safe mode and to sit and to uninstall programs for about 3 hours just to make it down to 83% full to do a Defrag. Its actually work very well now, but I know I have a lot of empty as much as * in the start menu. Also, McAfee trail period expired so I put Microsoft Security Essentials on it when I get the network card working. My main concern right now is to get the active windows firewall. Its a service does do not question, I'm sure. I'm used to Win7 64bits easy repairs, but did not do much with XP. I've run sfc.exe and msconfig set to normal. What to do next? Also, I find it odd the drive c does not list in the management of the computer, but is displayed in my computer. I heard Island what OS is on the partition of disk #0 #2? Is it just a thing of Dell?

Also, McAfee trail period expired

You should probably flatten and reinstall.  The fact that the system partition is #2 suggests that this particular Dell has a hidden restore partition.  Dell support site seems to have a lot of broken links at the moment, but in general:

Reboot and when the Dell splash screen appears during the computer startup process, press and then press . Then release both keys at the same time. Which should help you in the PC Restore application where you have to follow the guests.

  • Windows Firewall service does not start after the removal of Virus

    Hello

    I believe that my son's computer has been infected with the Trojan.Agent.Ed virus.  I managed to remove it (from different folders in AppData), but a few vestiges remain of course.  The windows firewall service does not start - it throws an exception to access denied on startup and when I try to start the service manually.
    I tried to run the Sysinternals Process Monitor to display all events ACCESS DENIED and checked the permissions on the key to registry MpsSvc in HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\services and compared to a corresponding Windows 7 machine.  I've even exported the key MpsSvc and sous-branches of the laptop in good health and tried to import into a failure, but the import does not seem to occur, even if it gives a message "imported".
    I also tried the troubleshooting of Windows Firewall that confusedly says:
    "Windows could not start the Windows Firewall... Not fixed
    "Set permissions for the registry keys involved"... succeeded
    "Windows Firewall service is not started. Not fixed
    "Starting the Firewall Service"... succeeded
    Any ideas would be most appreciated.
    Thank you.

  • Windows Vista - Laptop Will NOT start properly

    I'm trying to fix laptop from my friend and I ran into a dead end, trying to get this thing to start properly. It's a laptop of Dell Inspirion used (model pp26L).

    From it normally of the results in a blue or white screen. When I go into the Advanced Boot Options, I tried "last good known Configuration (Advanced) and it goes to the black screen and does not change for hours." I also hit 'Repair your computer' and it brings up a window that is titled "System Recovery Options: RecEnv.exe - Application Error" and said, "the instruction at 0x775c6295 referenced memory at 0x00000000. The memory could not be written. Click on OK to terminate the program. »

    I don't know what I can do at this point because I'm not too familiar with Windows Vista anymore. My friend cannot afford to buy a new laptop so I hope someone here can help me solve this!

    UPDATE: if I managed to get "Last good known Configuration (Advanced)" to work, but it left me with a window titled "Startup Repair" that says "Windows cannot repair this computer automatically".

    I don't have a Vista CD or whatever it is attached to the laptop. Everything that I have this thing is the laptop and the charger.
