MS DOS compatiblity mode error
If the problem persists after formatting, there may be a master boot
record virus. Go to http://www.invircible.com/iv_tools.php#Ivinit and download "ivinit.exe" to a floppy. Start the affected computer in "Command Prompt", insert the floppy, type "a:\ivinit.exe" and press "Enter". Don't forget to remove the floppy before restarting. Ben "ujjal" wrote in message ...
