yea yesterday i pretty much cleaned up my computer. i used disk cleanup, speed disk, disk defragmenter, and Ad-Aware SE Personal.so i;d says its in pretty good condition
Edit:
ok Halo CE works now. I have to give a big thanks to someone named DM01 on the IRC chat. for anyone else who has this problem do these steps:
1. Reboot your computer.
2. before the Windows loading screen, the company that made your computer (mine is Emachines), there should be a POST (thats what people call it ) screen having their logo on it. at that time press F8 as much as u need to until a screen appears.
3. select the option (Safe Mode)
4. now start up Halo CE and download the update, by going into multiplayer.
5. it will download and instlall it into the game. it wont take long.
6.and there u go its updated and u can now play Halo CE
