hp issues

HELP I have a hp computer that keeps trying to force me to download some program and it wont go away! Any advice on how to stop it? Also there is a spinning disc graphic in the center of my screen if that helps at all.

Ctrl + ALT + Delete -> Open task manager

Find the program that is probably it and close it. Make sure it's the one you want, don't close anything that you need.

Start + R

Type in services.msc and find the program that you closed earlier. Set its startup type to manual and if it is running stop it.

Seams to be some hp software. I have also an hp pc and it also wanted to do anything anytime.

After Win 8 release upgrate with a clean Windows no problems anymore
It's the best way. Just install windows without the stupid preinstalles software

Noob I tried task manager no matter how many times I end it it just pops back up regardless

Did you try the second part of my post? Open up Run using Start + R and find it in there and disable it?

He means the Windows key, to the left of your spacebar.
