For those who are not real familiar with the temp file problem: Try this. Boot up. The the 1st thing you do is START-SEARCH (files and folders). In the search box type this in just as you see it here. ~., *.tmp This will search for hidden windows temp files as well as all other temporary files. Deleate ALL of these temp files. Reboot.
