hi the other day the family computer had started playing up and has gradually got worse.
at first i noticed a lot of pos.tmp files in 'my documents' and in the C:\. then i noticed it became very slow and pop up messages warning me about poblems with the computer. i have McAfee internet security but i must admit it is the 2006 edition.
i went on the internet and went on to Kaspersky's website to get an online scan. as it was in progress the internet became very slow and stopped working altogether. from then on nothing has worked. (internet, programs, virus scan, e.t.c) the only thing i can do is click on the start button.
as my computr loads up, none of my desktop icons are visible and windows has changed to the classic look
a message also pops up with the message:
HEADED- important - potential errors found in the system
During a scan of files at sstem startup, potential errors in the system registry were found. p-07-0100 irql: 1f SYSVER 0xff00024
NT_kernel eror 1256
KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
after a while another window pops up saying:
a potentail problem has been detected and windows has been shutdown buggy applicatio to prevent damage to your computer.
****WXYZ.SYS - address f73120AE base at C00000, DateStamp 36b072A3
kernel debugger Using: COM2 (Port 0x28f, Baud rate 192000)
A short while after this message another message pops up stating:
this system is shutting down please save all work in progress and log off. any unsaved changes will be lost. this shutdown was initiated by NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM.
Windows must now restart because the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) service terminated unexpectedly
the computer will then sometimes turn off or freeze so i have to turn it off myself by flicking the power switch!
please someone help!
THANKING YOU IN ADVANCE!
