Task Manager not coming up
Well our family pc has been short on memory for awhile and every once in a while it likes to crash and deny access to apps because of it. Its back up and running fine except for the task manager, it doesn't come up with ctrl+alt+delete. Anyone know how to fix this?
By the way I just got a nice stick of ram on newegg. |

Sounds like a malware problem. My girlfriend's family PC was doing the same thing, and cleansing it with Ad-Aware and Spybot took care of it.

Can you right click on the taskbar and bring up task manager?
