Any ideas what could be wrong with it. When I try to delete a file it says " FILE IN USE". Even if no files are open

-restart your computer and run it in "safemode" by repeatedly pressing F8. Go to my computer, and click on your file and delete it, if you can't then go to yahoo answers/google and type in: taking ownership of the file.

The files you loaded on the hard drive may have been generated by a program that his PC does not have. Check the file types and see if they are compatible.

PLEASE READ ALL OF THIS: press and hold Ctrl Alt then press delete. this should load up task manager. click on "Processes" (near the top). scroll down untill you find "explorer.exe" click on it once and then click on "End Process". Now you will lose oyur start menu. To get it back click on "Applications" (near the top) and click "New Task". type in "explorer.exe" (without the inverted commas) and your start menu will come back. NOW you should be able to delete the file that you want to. trust me, it should work.
