Have you tried "reformatting"? reformatting is not the same as reinstalling.

[hooba1224]

thanks again- no luck with those scans- but I did like the microsoft scan- and by reformat you mean the whole hard drive because I am going to do that just want to see if anyone knew anything else before I took the steps

If you insert the Microsoft XP disc there is an option to repair the system - perhaps that is a try before a complete formatting and reinstalling of the Windows O/S.

Hi hooba,

After all the virus scanning, etc., you may want to try a system restore from safe mode. Did you install/run any programs recently that may have caused the system to be hosed?

regards, katz
