My AMD Athlon 64 3200+ emachines T6000 recently returned from warranty
repair. Everything has been working fine for the last couple of weeks that
it has been back, until the last several days.
Today, none of the CD-ROM drives work. The two installed drives are down
with error 39 and my USB CD-ROM drive is now disabled in the same manner. I
am beginning to suspect something sinister.
Earlier this week, Kaspersky anti-virus began popping up notices that I
needed to register the software and that it was no longer being permitted to
work until reregistered. Now I am open to the world. With the CD drives
disabled, there is no way to reload System Mechanic 5 Pro and the Kaspersky
anti-virus programs that come with it.
Whenever the machine boots up now, there is a window popping up that is
supposedly a "Windows Installer". Never seen this window before. Is it
native to Win XP Home, SP2?
I'm at a loss as to what to do. I can't reload Win XP because I can't access
the CD-ROM drives. Any suggestions would be most appreciated. TIA
