Scanning PC for problems?

I stumbled upon that option last week where it scans your system for problems and finds a solution for it. Now I don't know where to find it? Anyone have any ideas? It's not that performance reliability test.

Thanks

Are you sure you haven't got any malware? Or that it wasn't a website component offering the same? The only other native option that I can think of on Vista is Windows Defender (You can get to it from Control Panel > Security > Windows Defender (or just type "D-E-F-E... at the Start menu Quick Search bar)

Nope, not it, but i'll continue searching to see what it was.

Start- type 'prob' in search and Problem Reports and Solutions shows up as first choice. Good Luck!
