Erm..... I think I have a virus.

I haven't been on for a while because I think my comp. has a virus. It won't start up...... but luckily, I can still use my laptop(which I'm on at the moment), so it's okay.

Hopfuly that should fix it but if not then you might have to go down the more complicated route of formatting the HD under the shell system using the disk. I have only ever done that once but with windows 98
