Default DTEMP corrupted

Hello
My brother has windows 98 and he bought a cd drive from
argos and since he installed it onto his pc it has been
crashing constantly, he ran a virus scan and it said that
hidden files were corrupted, DTEMP being one of them. he
doesnt know what this DTEMP is and as he got it 2nd hand
he doesnt know what was installed before he got it.he has
problems conntecting to the net and allsorts of other
problems with it. He has also defraged it and the last i
heard it was still running it after 5 hours!!
Any help would be fantastic as i would love to chat to
him on line.

Thanks loads
Sam

Default DTEMP corrupted

Do a search on Google.com for: DTEMP

I suspect that it has nothing to do with the problem. Since he doesn't know
the history of the PC, I suggest it might be best to wipe the drive and
start over with a clean load of W98 and all software. Before starting,
