My Vista Home Premium 32-bit laptop (HP dv9207us, 2GB RAM, )will not run except in Safe Mode since uninstalling Jetico Personal Firewall 2.0.0.34 beta through Control Panel/Programs and Features using their included "BC Uninstall" on 9-14-07.

Windows CRASHED during the uninstall, with Blue Screen showing "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL", and:
Technical Information:
*** STOP: 0x0000000A (ox00000000, 0x00000002, 0x00000001, 0x823A4DAE).
I always get this blue screen when trying to start Vista in Normal mode.
I have a Vista Ultimate upgrade install disk and I wonder if it would CORRECT everything while installing or if this would just compound my problem.

Here is the Sequence of Events:

System Message: "System Restore [from 9-15] did not complete successfully. Your computer's system files and settings were not CHANGED."
Details: "An unspecified error occurred during System Restore. You might want to try System Restore again and choose a different Restore Point."
I'd rather not use an earlier Restore Point because of changes to the system since then. I'd rather fix the source of the problem.
I am hoping someone may be able to help me recover my system! Thanks.Download, install and run CCleaner:

Do not install the Yahoo Toolbar.

You need only use the default settings...

POST back with your results, please...Can you boot successfully in safe mode ?
If so try re-installing jetico and uninstalling it again.Thanks everyone for the tips and your time.
I did try the solutions proposed, short of re-installing jetico or Windows, with no positive result.
I tried System Restore, but it wouldn't work because I had been including the HP Recovery partition in it, and it was filled up.
I ended up restoring the C drive from an Acronis backup from Aug. 18 and it then worked perfectly.
In the future I will not be relying on System Restore, although it now works since including only the C drive in restore points.
Thanks again.Good news to hear you have Acronis...you won't need System Restore
My Schedule:
Every Sunday @3:AM full Acronis restore...backed up to secondary partition on IDE2.
Monday: verify latest Acronis images.
This gives me a weekly backup on another drive other than the boot drive in case of failure...
Once a month i select the latest backup and burn it to DVD and store it off site.

Worst case scenario i am no further than 3 weeks away from being back up and running in about 20 minutes with all my data and programs intact.
Even if 2 hard drives fail at the same time...
