Problem with Windows Internet explorer and the computer. URGENT!?

Recently I just formatted my computer. I had installed all the drivers, printer software etc. Everytime I log on to the computer there will be three program that will pop up and I don't need them. It is a program that ask you the install photo gallery. The others two were also installsation program but I cannot run it and dont know what it is too. Also when i tried to open internet explorer i cant open it. It open for less than 1 second then close. How do I solve this problem? I need the answer as soon as possible.

First go to your control panel and then to programs, there un-install anything you don't use or need from the computer. Sometimes a 3rd party software that is built into some programs will cause problems with IE and other programs. Next you should make sure that you have all the updates from Microsoft for your Windows system.

I think the photo gallery thing came from yr driver sometime driver have nonsense 3rd party software on them
To resolve that use another method of installing drivers
Go Control Panel System Hardware Device Manager
Unidentified Programs right click update driver direct it to yr CD drive it will find the driver and do minimal install
As for Internet Explorer issue
Download Microsoft Service Pack 3 to update it it will solve all problem Microsoft XP Service pack 3 is stable from wat i know I am also using it
Hope this helps

You said you just formatted? do a Windows Update before anything, this might solve your issue. As for the other stuff, Add/Remove programs in your control panel to remove all the junk you don't want.

try system restore and then install the drivers again but carefully this time. maybe u dd soemthin wrong
