Get Regscrub to clean dead links super easy. OP needs no computer knowledge to do this. Google it or find it on download.com. Its freeware.

I've used regscrub. Somehow messed up my video drivers and I had to reinstall those. Personally, just using the program and indiscriminantly erasing all the found 'dead' links is not something I would recommend to a novice.
