Ran the sfc /scannow and had my xp CD in but still got a few prompts to put in a different CD. Tried DDS afterward and nothing changed.

Try a Repair Install. http://www.michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm

I was reading through some of the warnings on the previous step you listed there and it seems really sketchy. I'm not sure I will be able to back everything up. (Or maybe there is something I am missing in the instructions?) I did read somewhere that the C:\i386 folder has all the files that the sfc scannow tries to replace. So my questions is what if I were to just take all the files from the i386 folder that I have found on the XP CD and simply copy them into my C Drive?

After I changed the boot sequence in the BIOS to the CD, I saw the screen showing the proper steps but before I could get to the next step in the repair install, I got the blue screen of death. I am not using an XP CD that came with this computer as it never came with one. I think Dell may have just included the Service Pack files in the i386 folder?

Sorry I didn't reply to the last post. Sort of forgot...

I'm pretty sure we got the malware that time unless this is a Virut infection. Try running Dr Web CureIt again.
Or this. Avira AntiVir Rescue System * Download the Avira AntiVir Rescue System * Place a blank CD in your burner and double-click on the downloaded file. * The program will automatically burn the CD for you. * Place the burned CD into the affected computer and start the computer with the CD in the CD tray. * On the bottom left side of the screen there are 2 flags. Using your mouse click on the British flag to use English. * Click on the Configuration button. - Select Scan all files - Select Try to repair infected files and Rename files, if they cannot be removed - Select Scan for dialers - Select Scan for joke programs (Jokes) - Select Scan for games - Select Scan for spyware (SPR) * Click on Virus scanner * Click on Start scanner at the bottom of the screen Currently the program does not support saving a log. Please write down the list of items for Records, Suspect files, and Warnings then post them back here. |
