Im at work looking for a file on the computer...I open one that says "rebates" and opens is a picture of a man with bug eyes sitting at a computer. Obviously a virus...the computer freezes and ctrl alt del wont work so i turn it off and on...i know not good to do...
anyway know the begins to start up...then goes to a black screen that says DISK READ ERROR OCCURED PRESS CTRL ALT DEL TO RESTART and everytime i do that it just goes back to the same thing. F8 did not work until i put in the windows xp pro disk. Now with the Cd i get back to the black screen get "press any key to boot from cd" and i do...then i get "setup is checking your hardware configuration settings" or something similar to that the computer goes to a black screen and just sits there...
please tell me there is someway around this and that the harddrive is not toast....its my computer at work and the last thing i need is to get fired.
I have nortons on the computer and had run a scan the day before....
