XP Error Blue screen error code
Hello...I have done searches but I guess I'm not getting it. I got a virus,
I know this already due to a big huge screen telling me so. Now I get nothing, no desk top icons nothing. Cannot restart in safe mode or any other mode. So my plan was to just reinstall XP. I get the blue screen with the "a problem occured and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer" blah blah ***STOP: 0x0000007B (oxf8acd524,oxC000034,0x0000000,0x00000000) I have my oringal disc but that is not working. I shut down my computer then turn it back on with the disc in the drive and I get nothing. Also I can get to the sign in screen toss the disc in and I still get nothing. Can anyone help me? I don't know how to get to a command promt or anything like that |

tells me to select in the boot menu, CD but that screen does not give me that option..only safe mode, safe mode with networking, and command promt.

"bluemerle" wrote: So my plan was to just reinstall XP. Good idea but you should take your error message below and either paste it into google search or something to that effect if you have a computer handy just in case this is a hardware error and not only a software error created by a virus. "a problem occured and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer" blah blah ***STOP: 0x0000007B (oxf8acd524,oxC000034,0x0000000,0x00000000) Ok if you're ok to start re-installation the next question I have is have you got a back-up of any important information on your computer? as this might go bye bye with re-install. I always suggest taking your computer to a technician and this isn't going to be the quickest thing to reload/re-install. Further they'll know better how to do things such as set your laptop to boot from cd/dvd rom/rw drive, and, of-course getting a backup from your current installation etc.. But if you've weighed the odds and want to reload yourself you can get to your bios by typing either F2 botton or F1 of ESC or DEL dependant on your computer you should see this option if you press the TAB button when the machines screen starts up immediately. (Pressing TAB will take away the DELL logo when starting and show you what is happenning in the background) I hope this helps good luck. I have my oringal disc but that is not working. I shut down my computer then turn it back on with the disc in the drive and I get nothing. Also I can get to the sign in screen toss the disc in and I still get nothing. Can anyone help me?

It is an Optiplex GX270 if I recall. I do have a floppy drive but I do not
have any floppy discs for the machine...so I guess I'm going to have to get them from Dell? "Shenan Stanley" wrote: bluemerle wrote: Hello...I have done searches but I guess I'm not getting it.
