    It goes blank and theres no way to log into the computer or do anything else further?
    Then your gonna need a new one, it seems like a virus fried your Hard Drives and attacked your CPU, by the time your able to do a virus scan it'll be to late, so new computer seems to be your best bet.

    Limewire opened all of the ports to my computer. My brother tried to fix the thing with anti spywear, norton antivirus, and something else. it wasnt working. so i tried reformating, and now the screen goes blank after it boots up. i guess i'll just have to try getting a new one -_-

    Which HD/partition did you formatted? If your re-format HD/partition with the OS on it, you have to re-install your OS back else everything should be ok.

    That's all I can diagnose your computer problem from your explaination.

    what i did was that i got a new XP disk and reformated the F drive (i have 2 hard drives) and then i tried to reformat the C drive, but it wouldnt load up to the log in screen. i previously had the XP Professional program. my dad told me to get the Home Edition one because it was cheeper. i think that both of the programs clashed with one another and thats why the computer isnt working anymore.

    Let see now...

    You mean that you installed both C and F partition with XP Home Edition? If your C partition currently using XP Professional, you cannot install that partition with Home. You have either swap the IDE position of the C and F drive is the partition is in the separate HD or you reformat the C using DOS environment or use other computer to reformat your C partition and then install a fresh XP Home edition on it.

    In its most simplest form..

    Reformatting does mean you'll lose everything. Understanding that, here's the idea.
    If you start up your computer using the new Windows XP CD, you should be able to from there tell it to do a clean install, and to erase everything existing on your hard drive. This will give you a clean slate so you can start over....

    Things to be aware of though.. If you want to load from the CD, usually as the computer is starting, before you see the Windows screen, a message will appear saying "Press any key to boot from CD..." You want to press any key there. If that does not appear, then chances are, your computer is not configured to load from the CD.. And that's a slightly more complicated process to explain.

    Uh.. Actually, there's not even any indication in what she said that there even was a virus to begin with.

    She tried to reformat. This means that many files were lost, and that partitions were possibly erased or corrupted. That she even sees a Windows screen after that is surprising as it is. But the huge problems being faced now are actually caused by her own actions.

    However, the hardware still works, the software just has to be replaced. And that's what she's trying to do.

    the other problem that i am faceing is that i need the money to get a new computer. i just spent around $200 on the XP disk. and my mom was suppose to give me access to my SSI checks, but obviously she still has control over my money -_-


    also, my dad and brother have tried to switch the tabs around for the C and F drives so that i would be using the F drive as the main drive instead of the C (this was way way back before i even started useing the computer).

    I know that reformating the drive erases the memory of the hard drive. thats what i wanted in the first place. i just needed to get a new XP disk because we have 3 other computers (other then mine) on the other XP disk. and i fallowed all the steps that my dad and my brother gave me and i still wound up with the problems im faceing now.

    Err... probably not. Viruses that actually do that are extremely rare these days, and had it happened, it wouldn't have been possible to actually format the harddrive.. or boot at all.

    Have you tried using your system restore disc that comes with the computer? That will flush out your harddrive, and reboot everything from the beginning.
    I guess every generation is doomed to fight its war,

    suffer the loss of the same old illusions,

    and learn the same old lessons on its own.

    Wow Ask, I've rarely seen a vius do that. I've had a few before but nothing that actually stopped my computer from booting up, especially since it sounds like she can still get very limited access.

    Looks like I am the new virs king

When XP Home Edition was getting installed, it got interruped some how and not all of the program files got downloaded...my brother took the F drive out of the computer to see if he can fix it. I hope he can, i need that computer for college next year and i dont feel like haveing to spend money getting a new one.

    Well, this sounds like a pretty basic problem, if you can reformat your computer chances are you can re-install the OS.



    Hey look, Japan made a movie about me!

    i hope you did what member name said to do:
    Reformatting does mean you'll lose everything. Understanding that, here's the idea.
    If you start up your computer using the new Windows XP CD, you should be able to from there tell it to do a clean install, and to erase everything existing on your hard drive. This will give you a clean slate so you can start over....

    Things to be aware of though.. If you want to load from the CD, usually as the computer is starting, before you see the Windows screen, a message will appear saying "Press any key to boot from CD..." You want to press any key there. If that does not appear, then chances are, your computer is not configured to load from the CD.. And that's a slightly more complicated process to explain.
    my sister did this to her pc. it works now. this is what you should have done in the beginning. if you dont see the OS working then it seems that theres nothing in your hard drive.

    i dont think its the F drive that needs help. it should be the C drive. but take it to a pc shop if you cant get it to work. hopefully the hard drive didnt blow on you.


    Thanks for the sig Xey Oiz ^.^

    Your computer probally got a hold of a virus and when you reformatted it jacked it up. You will be able to keep the computer but your gonna need a new hard drive.
