PC wont Boot !!! Could be starforce ??!? (Resolved)

[canimo]

I had to reboot my PC after completing the instalation of my SH3 DVD.

But it didnt reboot !! :huh: :huh: :huh:

I had to make a 2nd XP install on the same HD just to boot & scan for viruses.... nothing found !!!

Could SF be the cause, or should I just keep the virus alternative for that ???? !!!

:88) :88)

What´s the exact problem? An "OS not found" message?

[canimo]

it freezes on that first windows logo, that has tha blue dotted bar passing. the bar stops. . .

Try booting into safe mode and going into the control panel to access your event viewer. This will show application, security, and system logs to tell you exactly what failed.

Ok PPl. . .


Thanks.


It´s a trojan called ByteVerify . Polimorph.

I will format/install XP again.

I was just strange cause it showed up right after i installed & patched SH3. My game DvD was legally bought, so probbly the virus was hibernating, or i messed up something that i cant remember now. . .

But thanks for the help, i thought star force could have messed up boot or something !!! :up: :up: :up:
