In the past I've usually solved xp problems with a quick format and reinstall - within an hour I'm back up and running; this time I thought I'd throw it open to suggestions.
Only since I started installing updates I've had the following problems:
Internet connection stops, with no warning (USB modem, reconnects after reboot).
IE won't start (Click on icon, a very brief flash of a page, then nothing).
MSPaint won't let me select any colour, apart from white or black.
System Restore shows "Cannot restore, please select another restore point" for all restore points.
I've scanned for viruses and malware.
Any ideas, or should I stick with "Plan A"?
