Redirect Problem Still There
I am sorry to report that I am still having the same search engine redirect problem as before. :sad:
Cascading Problems--Ugh!!!!
:surrender::confused:I followed your directions and downloaded GMER and tried to run it.
After about one hour scanning (and seemingly making progress), I got the dreaded blue screen closing all programs and Windows due to something named:
uwddqpow.sys
address A21A3c3E base at A21A3000
DateStamp 4b274f8d
So I manually shut down the computer and rebooted. I tried to run GMER again, and again it seemed to making progress. Then, as it was scanning I:, my external hard disk, I again got blue screen and:
STOP d0000144 Unknown Hard Error
After again manually turing off computer I tried to restart in safe mode by using F8 during boot-up. That didn't work, and I also couldn't use msconfig to try to boot to safe mode (/SAFEBOOT was grayed out as an option and I couldn't check it).
It seems like things are getting worse--ugh! I really appreciate your help now more than ever, and also could use some encouragement, if possible.
