hangs for-ever just before the "welcome" screen

Hi,


I have installed BD Internet security 2012, but over the last two weeks (from approx 23rd Feb) windows did not start when switching on the computer. It hangs for-ever just before the "welcome" screen, showing only the mouse arrow. After an eternity it sometimes comes up with the users options screen, then it hangs again. I even re-stored my computer back to a few days earlier (thinking that it was windows issue) and installed the BD IN 2012, again same problem, it hangs forever. When I remove BD Inet sec 2012 in safe mode my computer works fine. Once I install the BD it hangs forever again with blank screen and arrow etc.


I have been using BD on the same computer since I trialled it back in Jan 2012, without any trouble, and I was happy with the product. It seems that after downloading a huge update ie 17mb at first, crash, then after reinstalling BD then a 23mb update then crash, then re installed, then today a 27mb update. I haven’t switched off yet to see what happens!! And, BD won’t run in Safe mode. Please also note that I am absolutley sure that all previous AV software has been removed from my PC.


I need a quick any solution for this problem.


I'm having the same problem too, only started happening a couple of days ago for no reason. Tried uninstalling (using BD tool) and then reinstalling, worked ok until shut down. Now it wont even do the auto update which i thought i had fixed earlier this year...


Chris - PM will be sent

  • I am having the exact same problem. My computer will hang intermittently when Windows 7 starts. It started a couple of weeks ago. I even took my computer the Best Buy Geek Squad and they couldn't identify the problem. It has occurred 3x in the last 2 days - driving me nuts. I even changed drives thinking it was Windows 7. Same problem regardless of drives. Would appreciate same e-mail help.


    Thanks
