windows xp strange remove program problem maybe

Post by renovation »

i have 2 drives on my machine a 120 gig se western digital and a 160 gig maxtor ~
here is whats going on when i go into control panel and i go into add and remove programes - and get the list of loaded programs - it list the programs but there is like a major gap in the list . it shows like 20 programs then i have to scroll down what seems like 2-4 pages for the rest of the list to show up !
kind of like there is pages of missing programs ?
is this a problem i should be concern with or just something flaky in my windows xp ?
the Last time I was Talking to myself . I got into such a heated argument . that is why I swore I never talk to that guy again. you know what it worked now no buddy talking to me. :help

As well.. I didn't really worry about it. I did a reformat somewhere along the line and haven't seen it since, but that doesn't mean I just haven't installed whatever caused that to happen (if that be the case). If you're not seeing any performance issues I wouldn't worry about it too much.. :) eGo

Nope, never seen that happen to me before. But nothing a format/reinstall cannot fix :D Unless the capacitors on your mobo is leaking like a mofo and the computer reboots all the time, like bro's computer right now.
