OK, I've got this problem that is occuring on my computer. I don't know exactly what is causing it or how to fix it so I was hoping maybe someone on here could help.
I think this may come from a virus my son got on there possibly from Kazza?? But anyway, when I turn the computer on, it goes through it's regular start up and when it looks like it's ready to go to my desktop and windows is about to start, it all of a sudden goes to this black screen saying something about checking my manual for hard drive configuration or running an anti-virus or a :chkdsk of some sort. It doesn't go any further so I can't run an anti-virus or anything because that is all on my computer. It seems as though I may have to do something in dos mode? Or maybe when it is starting up and it gives me the option for "Set Up" - F1. Does anyone know what I can do about this. It happened about 3 months ago and I took it somewhere to get it fixed and cleaned up completely so I'm sure it is fixable because they did it but I don't need it all cleaned up again, I just need to be able to get it to the desktop so I can run my anti-virus?? Any suggestions? Thanks.
