#AVAST UPDATE PROBLEMS XP SP3 HOW TO#

Selecting any of the options in BIOS, Boot Menu or in the Advanced Options Menu had no effect. I can only access the Boot menu, Bios Settings and the Wndows Advanced Options menu.

But when I went into Safe Mode and rebooted, the Hard drive, the CD/DVD drive and 'any other' external drive were ALL disabled. On their Website the instructions said to go into safe mode and execute the Avast cleanup.exe file.

I waited until the trial period ended and expected Avast to provide instructions how to un-install Avast but nothing. I used Avast to scan the 'C' Drive and found nothing. Some days it would work perfectly although slower than normal.

It would unexpectedly lock up while working on a task or suddenly turn off and reboot. As soon as Avast was installed, it took ages to load, it would freeze on boot up 3-4 times on the same day. I was offered the Avast Premier trial version for 60 days to try so I accepted and downloaded this as well. I am using Windows XP SP3 and downloaded the free version of Avast.
