Hello,

Is there a possibility to make a disk with startupdata so that you can make
changes on a ntfs drive. All possibilities of a startup disk install
Windows. That is not what I want. I want it the way Windows 98 had.

Please help me. I need this for removal of a exe file which contains a
virus. Norton cannot remove this virus.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Hans Brons.

This site MAY provide the information you are looking for:

But if you know the exe file that you need to delete,
have you tried booting to Safe Mode to delete it?
You could also try running Norton in Safe Mode.
Make sure Norton is up to date first.

Recovery Console.
Perhaps BartPE.
Otherwise - I bet there are removal instructions specific to your virus on -
for example - Symantec's web site.
 
Usually there is a link, within Norton once its found a virus which it
cannot automatically remove, to the Norton web site with specific
instructions.
It would be very unusual for you to have to access the file structure, if
thats what your trying
 
Use your XP Pro installation CD, but choose to work in Recovery Console (not
repair mode). This will boot you to a command prompt where you will have
full access to do what you need to do. Works almost exactly like the old
startup disk days. Good luck.
