I did call Sony to see I they can help me, they can for a fee that I do not have or want spend, I would like to learn how to fix the problem myself with ComputerHope and the people. I have a 2002 Sony Vaio PVC-RX650 Desktop computer with Windows Xp Home edition,512MB ram , 80GB hard drive. It run good until 2weeks ago, when I got broadband before that I used to have dial up so I have never update my windows and I did not know that I was supposed to until now, after that, I've download AVG free virus and discover that I have 4 trojans horses and other dangerous objects in my computer so I did what recommend it was to get rid of it , couples of day later I got pop up message from AVG that I have more dangerous object so I got rid of it as recommend.
Now when I go to start my computer I have Error message pop up not knowing that I could have got that error message fix if I have known there is a website that I could have gotten help from, like ComputerHope.
I thought I put the System Recovery CD in it would fix my computer it delete my hard drive and 20 second into the Recovery process An Error message pop up it read: Disk access: sense operation failed and that stop the install process. Now when I turn on my computer there a message that read: Missing os with blinking cursor.
How can I get the System Recovery CD to install?
How can I test to see if the CD is good or bad? I have put the CD in the CD-drive and DVD-drive that I have on my computer same result on both.
Please advise me option that can do I would like to have this computer fixed and running good so I can let my son be on it without spending too much money on it.
