Some antivirus program PC-Cillin that came with my Epox 8RDA+ told me that 1,600+ files were infected... I told it to clean them... but it ended up deleting a bunch of them or renaming them to disable their use. Turns out they were all important files. Luckily the program had an option to restore, so I manually had to click on each file and restore it. Mostly everything works now, except several problems... somtimes when INterent Explorer gets to a page, it doesn't load it or shows an error and I have to refresh it or open new window. Aim also has problems, as I cannot post away msgs or it freezes... those are just the 2 that are blatant.
I run "chkdsk" and it tells me that the file system is degraded, and it claims it fixes things, but it does not. I run it, and same errors are posted and "fixed" every time. Moreover, I ran Norton Utilities to check it, and it scheduled chkdsk on reboot, b/c "computer is using harddrive at the moment." During reboot, same thign happens... winXP launches chkdsk, checks/fixes corrupt files, but nothing is fixed. I have already re-installed aim, it worked a bit, and then same problem started to occur. And from what I understand Internet Explorer can't be reinstalled, unless formatting takes place... So my question is... what do I do??
