Hi there
A friend of mine also had this with a HE XP system and after checking initially the
USB, with no negative results - I removed the hard drive and placed it as a secondary
master in another system. Immediately, it went through 3 stages of checks including
NT scandisk and found many errors, which were all corrected.
Once finished, the drive was refitted to the original PC and it booted up fine. I
then installed Ad Aware spyware checker and it it found 597 nasties !!!!
Once rebooted all was again FINE
Again the result of too much P2P downloading !!!!
Hope this posting helps someone else
