Solve : System start up? |
|
Answer» Your best OPTION is to borrow real video card from a friend, and see, if computer will start normally. You evidently never tried what Broni suggested, but good luck with the new install.cryhelp, I don't know of anybody to "borrow" a video card from as Broni suggested....my only solution for that would be to buy a new one. I'm hoping the service pack will correct the issue if a file is corrupt, if not I guess a new video card is my only option. Hopefully the update continues to work for you. Let us know and good luck. Just thought I would give an update.....the Windows update fix was just temporary.....I finally got tired of fooling around. So I reformatted and reinstalled the operating system which fixed the issue. One thing I learned about Windows service pack 3..... when installed on my PC (it's 5 years old now) it caused the DVD drive and CD drive to have driver issues as HP hasn't updated the drivers for either. All is well now....just wanted to thank everyone who gave their input on this thread! HI You have the MSBlaster worm. To remove it, perform the following tasks: The following instructions are in three parts: 1. Stop it from running 2. Remove it from your system 3. Make sure it doesn't come back Before beginning, if you have an always-on internet connection, it's a good idea to disconnect it. 1. Stop it from running: Press Ctrl-Alt-Delete to bring up the Task Manager, then on the Processes tab, click msblast.exe and then "End process." Reply "Yes" to the warning message that comes up. This stops the worm from running, so your system will not shut down. However, it doesn't remove it, and if that's all you do, it will start up again the next time you boot. 2. Remove it from your system: A. Start the registry editor program, regedit, by going to Start>> Run, and type: REGEDIT [Enter] Navigate to HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Run by clicking the plus signs next to each of the folders in the left hand pane. When you get to the last of them, Run, click the WORD Run itself. In the right pane of the RESULTING window, find an entry called "Windows Auto Update". Right-click it and delete it. B. Go to Start> Search. Search in all files and folders for msblast, delete all files found. You should have successfully removed the worm from your system. If you do not take necessary steps to prevent future infections, it could come back just as easily as it did the first time. 3. Make sure it doesn't come back: A. Make sure you're running a firewall that prevents worms like this from getting in. You can enable the built-in Windows XP firewall, or download and install another one such as the free version of ZoneAlarm. To enable the built-in firewall, go to Control Panel, double-click Networking and Internet Connections, then click Network Connections. Right-click your connection, then click Properties, and on the Advanced tab, click the option "Protect my computer and network..." B. Be sure to use a good anti-virus program and that you update the definitions on a regular basis Umm... Don't mean to be rude or anything but who is your post addressed to Naresh.Techie?
