I believe I have a boot sector virus; both HD's were installed on PC, PC
crashed and would not re-boot. When I tried to re-install XP pro on the main
HD I got "windows has detected a fault and has shut down" reports ends with
0x0000007b etc. This also happened when I tried to install XP on the other
drive.
I installed XP on a clean drive without any problems until I set one of the
original drives up as a slave - this made the clean HD unbootable.
McAfee told me that you cannot get a boot sector virus on a disk formatted
to NTFS, if this is true, what's the problem?
Any help would be very gratefully received.
