Expert: Lorry - 3/30/2006
QuestionHi Lorry,hopefully u can help me with my problem. i use a Win Xp sp2, 1gb ram, 1.8 ghz processor, 40 gb HD.
I start my PC up and it goes to a Windows loading then right in the midle of loding it restarts then loads backup and asks me if i want to use Safe mode or other mode (I've tried all of them none work) Then i choose one it loads then restarts then same thing.
I did have Norton Antivirus 2005 and its firewall. And I had Sygate firewall. I also used spybot and Adaware.
I have tried to use boot disks from microsoft to reformat my pc but i can't even do that. I get an I/O error.
I desperatly need help
Plese give give a good answer or recommend a virus removal floppy, something I already asked Dan he could not help me
Thank you

It's also possible that the memory is bad, try replacing that.
Hope this helps!
