Removed the Trojan, it still tries to access the floppy drive at boot.

I just had an excellent idea... run my AV app with definitions from this year...
It's already found a trojan horse, I'm waiting to see if there's anything else.

Also, I keep seeing odd-looking...

Use Linux :D

Actually, that may be a possible solution. But if you want to stay with Windows:
-Take the card out and look at it. Make sure there are no loose/damaged chips or traces (traces are...

OK, it may not be the floppy drive itself, but...

Every time I boot Windows (doesn't happen in Linux) my floppy drive light comes on and starts buzzing. It happens about 2-3 times before it...

You could have just made a new boot disk, and typed sys c:

EDIT: This was a response to the last comment on the first page, I didn't notice...

It's kind of odd to give an error message because there's nothing wrong with your version...
Try a virus scan.
Also, this isn't the XP forum, but close :).

Either your computer is overheating or you have a virus. Open up your computer case and make sure all the fans are running (it's safe to open it with the computer on, just don't touch anything). If...

You could install Linux on it. However, Gateway recovery CD's are designed to only work with Gateway computers.

Format your HD and boot your PC from the XP CD.
(that's way too many acronyms for one sentence...)

If that doesn't work, try fdisk /mbr

Click start>run and type explorer
Put your floppy disk into the floppy drive.
