I have a computer that starts up, but right when the wallpaper shows, an error message appears:
"Error loading Explorer.exe. You must reinstall windows"Then another error message pops up:
"Error starting program, A required .DLL file, C:\\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\MSVCRT.DLL, was not found" After I click "OK" it continues to show the error messages and nothing else loads up. I tried loading my computer up in safe mode, but the same thing happens. I also ran Scandisk but that didn't help at all. My friend and I think that there might be a worm or virus in the computer, but I don't know how that's possible since I don't surf the web on it. I tried using the HP System Recovery CD, but the screen just freezes after I click "Ok". It also had freezing problems in the past before I got these error messages. Does anyone have any suggestions, solutions, or comments? :-? :-?
Oh and here are the specs:
HP Pavilion 8660C
Windows 98 SE
Pentium III
533MHz
20.46GB Hard Drive
128 SDram
DVD, CD-RW drives
It's very old I know, but if anyone has any suggestions or solutions to this problem I would appreciate it! Thanks.
