Go automatic if you can. Manual is always the last resort...

Alright, based on what you told me, let's try tackling this another way. Just follow the steps in this link http://repairerrors.net/0x80000000000000.html...

just grab WhoCrashed and dump whatever it spits out right here.

Check out this http://www.techonthenet.com/excel/formulas/concat.php.

Pair it with an IF function and it basically works like a SQL JOIN command... ☕

Then you're basically stuck with one option: Google messed things up on YouTube again... just try it again in a few days.

if AVG is acting up, just kill it until you reboot... should be fine🤷

just grab Revo Uninstaller and use it to wipe Google Earth out...

Just keep an eye on the RAM usage in Task Manager while the video's playing. You'll see what's actually going on then...

Players all handle video decoding differently, so you're gonna see different resource usage depending on how those devs wrote the code. Honestly, that Intel Core notebook seems way too weak for anything like HD video🤷

try that disc in another PC, or just test a different bootable one on yours.

So, what about adding a phone number as a recovery option?

Try changing it on your iPhone. I can pull it off on my laptop without even knowing the damn thing... maybe you can too 🤷

Try running a clean boot. Just follow the steps over at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135...

Maybe we're talking more about a hobbyist here? Someone just doing it for the love of the game rather than some polished profession...🤷

True, if it's not some BIOS issue that fried everything, then people say the motherboard's basically trash...

You can always just take it to a repair shop. It’ll be cheaper than wrecking something inside... assuming you haven't already.

If you don't have a clue what you're doing, just find someone who actually does... otherwise you'll probably just end up making things worse.

Is that rig still under warranty? If not, I'm gonna crack it open and blow out the dust...

might be worth running Malwarebytes and CCleaner through it too, just in case 😉

Once you get Windows XP patched up and cleaned out, it should run alright. But honestly, if you want to do anything serious, just get some new hardware... that stuff is ancient. Once you sort the drivers and get the Wi-Fi working, hit me up and we'll tackle the rest...
