Access Denied errors within event logs from antivirus, firewall, internet
explorer and so forth.I can't use sidebar doesn't load.No quick launch. Can't
access any files on my hard disk - says its currupt. Can't load word or excel.

It sounds like some program or service that is running is not Vista
compatible. Did this always happen or is it something new? Did you upgrade
from XP or was this a clean install?

Its a clean install of Vista 32 bit OEM systembuild.

Was working fine until some updates were installed.

After reboot wouldn't work.

Turnt UAC off and working fine.

Any ideas please :-)

Did you try uninstalling the updates or a System Restore to a time before
the updates?

Yes I did 24 hours before when it was working fine and before some updates.

Any other ideas please?
