2 versions of xp

[jason eggleston]

This is a long confusing problem that nobody I know can help with.

I was on the computer a couple nights ago when a box came up that sai
"Windows will shut down in 60 seconds. Close all programs and save you
work."

After windows shut down I restarted and all I get is a black scree
with the cursor. The cursor moves fine but ctrl+alt+delete doe
nothing. I tried to start on safe mode but the same black screen but i
says 'safe mode' in the corners.

I tried boot disks and nothing happened.

Next I hooked my drive up as a slave on another computer and the driv
shows up. But when I tried to go into my drive (D it would let m
access all the users in Documents and Setting except 'Bobs.BOB'
'Bobs.BOB' is where all my pictures and school papers and all thos
things are.

Next I tried to reinstall Windows onto the D: drive but could no
figure out how.

Next I installed Windows 2000 and then installed XP pro over that.

So now I have 2 versions of Windows XP. One will boot and the othe
will not.

Any help with any of this is appreciated. Thank you

Hi Jason,

It look like the system is infected with Blaster or Sasser.
Take a look here for a fix.
