Malware is a group term for Malicious Software. Included in this group are trojans, viruses, worms and "spyware". XPUser is correct in saying that some malware can be very tenacious.
You didn't reply to my question about the exact error message you get when installing the sound drivers.
It says Service Pack 1 or 2 is required. Anyway here is an update. I reformatted the lap top a few days ago & this morning I updated it with Windows Update & then installed Service Pack 2. After it installed I rebooted the lap top then the entire desktop frozed complete :rolleyes:. So I reformat again update the lap top with Windows Update again now I am trying Service Pack 1 & now just finished updating Windows with Service Pack 1 installed. Service Pack 2 completely freezes Windows. Lets see how Service Pack 1 works with Windows completely updatedQuote:

After installing Service Pack 2 it makes me reboot & after rebooting as I said the desktop freezes completely making the lap top unusable. Unless someone here can teach me how to unfreeze the desktop I am stuck with Service Pack 1 :pQuote:

Toshiba ACPI Common Modules for Windows XP is another important update. go here for your model's support There are 40 downloads in all available.
Well so far I have Service Pack 1 installed & completely up to date. Its only been 20 minutes but no noteable problems yet :p & 40 downloads there better be one big *** zip
no big zip, you download the drivers, utilities, updates and user guides you need.
