Hard Ware Problem by Euclidmyke(m): 11:09pm On Aug 31, 2012
Hi guys,

I have a very consistent problems with my PC. As soon as i format and finish installing the OS Windows Vista Professional on my pc, every thing gets corrupted. The browsers IE, Mozilla and even Opera Stops working. My microsoft office and even corel draw gets corrupted and none opens. When i try to uninstall or even reinstall a programme i get error messages like:acledit.exe has stopped working or Microsoft Setup Bootstrapper has stoped working.I have changed my Hard disk severally but it does not work. When i connect online for solution, i get nothing. Pse can any one lead me out of this problem. I am trapped.

Is the OS pirated or original CD with it key?

First things first, get rid of Vista....Get Window 7 or worst case, fall back to XP

"Everything gets corrupted after installation" leads me to believe you aren't using a genuine installation media (or perhaps, during installation, it flagged some "could not copy file" errors, which you ignored and continued installation) or a "spawned media" not officially released by Microsoft.

Plus, are you on a network? Local or internet? If yes, disconnect your machine from these network and immediately after installation, install a good anti-virus program FIRST!! Not to mention, I feel you install the Office suite, corel from a "removable storage device" like a USB flash drive or external hard disk? If yes, then that/those removable drive(s) is/are probably already infected...for how else would a clean OS installation "just get corrupted"?

Hi guys,

Honestly i do not use original Window. I am also not on internet or network but i install some applications from my external Hard disk. I also use free avast anti-virus.

I don't know much about Avast, but I would suggest you run a thorough scan of the external hard drive on another PC with a better anti-virus (Kaspersky, Norton, AVG) before you plug it into you newly installed PC.
