Hi
running a p133 with 96mb ram, 4gigHD
I think I got a virus...because Tiny Personal Firewall kept asking me to OK somthing on evey application I ran, but just the once.
Windows became buggy, and I must have gone mad, for (before virus checking) I debugged and formatted my HD.
During the W98 setup, I keep getting these error mssgs:
windows requires XXXXX bytes (then it stops responding, needs 'any key' prompt, then restarts, and loops back to a:/ promt)
And....when I finaly got to proper W98 installation, I get to the first progress bar, and when it reaches 100% thuings stop (mouse still works) but a little black box bleeps up in the middle of the screen.
I cant get it to do anything else...
My HD is debugged, formatted and system files on it, ready for w98.
I am wondering, do i have a boot sector virus?(remember i didnt get chance to virus check..would it have moved onto my boot sector?)
Is this a retreivable problem?
Thanks
Andrew
