Here's the deal. I'm working on a friends computer running Windows ME. When booting
up to desktop, the start button won't work and other problems. So I slave the hard
drive to mine and run virus scan using Nortons. It only has 2gb used space on drive,
after 6 hours of scanning, still not done. I stop the scan and view the report and
it says that it has 5 boot records with one master boot record. Whats the deal?
I've been watching it scan and every so often it will add a "\" between "windows"
and "option" in the directory tree but if I go to the windows folder I don't see
any problems. Whats causing this? Does it need to be formatted and reinstalled
again? Safe mode don't even work properly.
