I have a Pavilion a1720n/Vista system that suddenly crashed. Had much pain getting to the point of seeing my desktop until it would either freeze, go blue screen or restart itself. I found that dhcp wasn't assigning an address to the computer but found the nic card to be in fine condition. Most perplexing was N360 wouldn't start automatically nor manually. Did a system restore which seemed to fix the boot up problems. Fortuantely the N360 uninstall program still worked because, lo and behold, dhcp server assigned an IP address just as soon as I uninstalled N360. I then reinstalled N360 and everything seems to be back to normal. But is it?
N360 seemed to go corrupt. Any ideas on what hit me?
Thanks in advance.

Hello & welcome to the Tech Guy Forum.
Regarding "But is it?". Time will tell. However, Vista includes multiple tools for identifying problems and fixing problems. TGhe experts at the Tech Guy Vista forum can provide that information.

Files become corrupt because:
It is computer world.
Windows has become corrupt.
Your hard drive or ram are corrupt. Could be CPU, motherboard, data cable, power supply, et al, but HDD & ram are most common.

No hits at symantec.com, after I selected N 360 Premier 2, and searched on dhcp.

Yes i understand you now, when you perform system restore that will not restore norton or secruity softwares many a times and this is what it could result in..uninstalling and reinstalling norton is the only solution in that case
