Ok. I’m new to this whole computer thing and am very caucious when it comes to doing anything to possibly harm or cause problems. I am extremely thurough and study everything before I make any kind of programming change. Nevertheless, I’ve offically locked myself out of my desktop. Allow me to explain:
Error message I receive on startup:
A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
If this is…bla bla bla, follow these steps.
Check for viruses on your computer. Remove any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controlers. Check your hard drive to make sure it is properly configured and terminated. Run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption, and then restart your computer.
Technicial information:
*** STOP: 0x0000007b (0xf96dd528, 0xc0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
Oddly, my computer did not shut down, I went to restart it in safe mode to remove Smitfraud–a trogan that creates a driver in the \windows\system32\ and runs all the time in the background, pulling up webpages and clogging up CPU. (its really fun):)
Anyway, I figured I’d use this chance while I still have some of my hair left and before I loaded my 357 to put a bullet in this wounded horse to see what you guys thought about that…
