Still scratching thorugh the undergrowth on this. I need help please to remove some installed items.
I looked in Hardware, hidden items and it still shows the USB/RJ45 adapter athough it has been physically unplugged and likewise an older wifi card which was replaced some months ago by a new one.
EDIT: Found an uninstall prog
I actually had two instances of the USB/RJ45 which might have been causing the problem? I now have one. Card is a UN-LU 20AN from ?'Shenzhen'?
I have 'disabled' both and removed any folders from the registry which refer. Booted into safe and tried to 'uninstall' but am told they may be required during boot. I cannot see where, msconfig, registry, all start-up folders show no trace. Where are the b***s hiding and how do I persuade them to 'leave'?
