Default ie7 fails

Only changes to the system from it running yesterday, and running today :

in Firefox 3, the flash player had to be installed. I have no idea what
uninstalled it other than maybe a fumbling finger in the install/uninstall
section. I never saw it get uninstalled.

And I was using my 300 watt power supply yesterday, and installed my 600 watt
PS today.
Everything is running just fine now except for IE.
I wanted to use the chat thing at newegg, and FF couldn't handle it. and IE
wouldn't even start.

How do I fix IE if I can't start it ?

do a system restore to a time prior to this problem...

(Im sure you know this) the PSU is just a power supply and has nothing to do
with the error you see...

I'm sure a restore would do the trick, But I learned long ago that restore is
'baby out with the bath water. In addition to the fact that a restore usually
messes up more than it fixes.
What I did do was booted to 'no addons'. Then did a reset.
Overkill.
Then when the problem still existed. Googled this and recalled the problems
with google search toolbar and flash. Deleted my flash stuff from
uninstall/install.
rebooted, it worked.
Then re-installed the flash plugin's from flash site.
Long way, but much faster and simpler than taking a month to put stuff back the
restore ******* up.

System restore is not the same as "system recovery" - or returning
your system to out-of-the-box condition - which I think you are
referring to.

It resets your system settings to an earlier point, and rarely changes
much else.

press start, then go to the help, and type "system restore" you will learn
about the function I am referring to.
