The XP version I have is Media Edition and it came with the computer when I bought it.

I do have an old XP disc that is an "XP Home Edition" upgrade disc for those that had an older version of Windows. I had upgraded to XP Home Edition from ME before I purchased this computer. Will that upgrade disc work? Otherwise, I do not know anyone that has an XP Media Edition disc.

Let me know what to do next.

On the bright side I can log into safe mode now And, I ran the vundo fix in safe mode as originally instructed to do - looks like it still did not work?

as long as its an actual windows disc, it should work.

OK, I did as much as I could, here's what happened. I booted from the disc and chose "R" as instructed. Instead of the C:/Windoes prompt, the following appeared: 1: H:/MiniNT 2: H:/I386 There were no other choices. I chose the first one anyway and, after entering the info, came back as not valid path.

What went wrong? How do I get the C: prompt, instead of the H prompt?

did you try manually changing it to C prompt?

cd c:\

No, I will tonight after work. How do you make a back-slash? My keyboard does not seem to have this option.

This did not work.

My screen is turnining yellow, my computer continues to freeze up, it runs slower than it should. I'm still infected.

Hi,

Sorry on not getting back to you sooner, but I have asked a few of the experts on their thoughts on this and they too are scratching their heads. I will let you know if anything changes.


Thanks,
