RE: yahoo messenger /msn messenger
Just you need to give access to Yahoo and MSN. That means when you click on MSN to install one pop up window will come up that is because of AVG.So it will ask you that some application is try to connect to internet or something like that you need to click allow not deny. Then try to install Yahoo or MSN. If that doesn't work try to disable the AVG by right clicking on the AVG icon near the system clock.One window will pop up and there will be option for disabling the AVG. And then try to install Yahoo or MSN.

RE: will not go to homepage on start
Can you please tell me what version of internet explorer are you using.That you can check from the help tab located on the top of the internet explorer(about internet explorer). If it is less than version 7,try to update it from Microsoft site and one more thing is your Pc is updating or not I mean did you ever saw any pop up like saying updates are ready or some thing like that.
Seems to be resources conflict.Did you try to reset the Bios to default value?
If you are not technically sound,please don't try to do that.Otherwise you will crash your whole system. And for such issues either never try to use Google,some times the information you get is not 100 % up to the mark.My friendly advise to you is that, to call technical person to fix this issue.
Reset the BIOS setting to default,I think It will solve your problem. And after setting it to default,please check it is displaying your hard disk or the DVD drive you want to install or not. Otherwise you need call expert to fix the issue.
