It may be too late..format "c" and re-install system. If you have OEM, use their procedure. IF SYSTEM RESTORE was active, boot in safe mode and try to restore. I have been on ME since the day it came out.. never a virus, but GO-BACK provides excellent recovery from almost any non-hardware disaster and it "restores" much more accurately than SYSTEM RESTORE. (I am not a roxio salesman..but GOBACK is excellent.good luck..bob

Thanks for the tip Bob
BTW..I have used "System Restore" so much that I finally started re-installing WinMe over top of itself. I am interested in GoBack but am unfamiliar with it. Do you lose any data, does it restore system files, or what is the scoop? PS I would be glad to read about it if it isn't relevant to this post. Just point the way
