Hey every1,
i just recently switched to win7 OE system 2-3weeks ago.

I turned my PC off saturday, and went home for easter sunday, came back the next day, turned on my PC, and none of my 32 bit programs work, heres a short list:
Firefox
IE 32bit
Windows Live messenger
BattlePing
Lineage2

All 64 bit programs seem to work:
ventrilo 64bit
IE 64bit
itunes 64bit
etc

ive tried to reset my tcp/Ip address, i have no restore points created, i uninstalled mylast 2 automatic updates, and am currently downloading some codec for my sound card since some other forum suggested that the sound card was preventing there 32bit programs form opening.
The problem is mine all open, they just cant connect to the internet, like Live messenger gets a troubleshoot error, and IE32 get s anetwork diagnostic error.
when i troubleshoot them no results can be found.

IM thinkin of reinstalling my Operating system all over again, but i wud hate to take the time to do all this when i know these programs used to work.
