Just do a virus scan on all the files, without opening them.

Yeah that should be enough.

I have Trend Micro Internet Security 2008.  You'd think it would have caught whatever.  I'll have to move the hd before I can scan anything.  I know zero about RAID hd's, so I'll have to wait for help to wake up.

Basically, make sure you are grounded (to prevent a static shock) and open up the computer case.
You should be able to put it in the good computer in the place of its CD Drive. (make sure both computers are off)
Make sure the jumpers are set to slave (back of the Hard Drive, where the plugs are)

Wish me luck.  If I'm not back to report on progress, that means I crashed 2 computers and am banned from touching the others.   

[kpac]

LOL! Good luck.

[Carbon Dudeoxide]

LOL! Good luck.

Exactly what I said but you posted before me. 

[frustr8ed]

Go figure.  I'm not allowed to take the anointed computer apart.  Is there any way to hook up an ide hd on the raid system and scan it that way?  Will Windows find the array?  When did computers get so complicated!?!

[Carbon Dudeoxide]

What do you mean?

[frustr8ed]

The harddrives on the problem computer are SATA raid.  Does that mean the hd is different or is it just hooked up differently?

[Carbon Dudeoxide]

I have to admit, I'm not 100% on this area so I don't really know. 

So what, you weren't allowed to open the other computer?

[frustr8ed]

"Do NOT touch that case!"  Sounds like a no, right?  lol  Guess his majesty will dismantle my perfectly functional computer when he gets home tonight.     It is a really pretty case with blue lights and all kinds of gizmos.  I probably wouldn't want me messing with it either.  Oh well, out of my hands.  I'm sure I'll be the one posting when he really messes it up later. 

[Carbon Dudeoxide]

Lol, all right. We'll be here.

[frustr8ed]

Just shoot me!  A cordless keyboard on the other side of the room had something sitting on the space bar.  No wonder the computer was acting exactly like the space bar was stuck!!!     I threw the wrong keyboard earlier.   

[Carbon Dudeoxide]

Wait....so what?

[frustr8ed]

lmao  In addition to having 2 harddrives and 2 video cards, his majesty's computer evidently has 2 keyboards and 2 mouses (mice) installed.  He's saying that the extra mouse and keyboard are so that he can play on the big screen.... so add 2 monitors to the configuration. 

He walked out, noticed some light blinking and picked up the shoe that was sitting on the spacebar of the cordless (spare) keyboard.  Clear as mud?    

Don't those things have an off switch?  Nevermind, that's a hardware issue.
