Hi everyone,

I use Windows server 2003 Enterprise one and service pack 1 as my operating system. At the moment of having attempt of installing any new software in it then it works till the extraction level and after that it got hanging problem or just vanished. I also had some attempt to start the pc as another choice after without checking the “restrict privileges box” by my administrative account that I have. I made attempt to install Malwarebytes including Notepad++ at all but the first one have no response of clicking and the last one runs till the extracting stage and got hang up problem. So could you cooperate me regarding this problem so that I feel really good.

Thank you in advance for your kind of cooperation.
