I cannot see how this affects the machine, none of my hdd's have labels i set them to blank. maybe a virus of some kind?? i will get back to you ASAP when i have more news

Your probably right. I am just not sure what to do.

Sounds like a boot config change is set to boot to Safe Mode with Command Prompt - tap the F8 key before the Windows splash and set the boot to Windows;

edit: may be wrong BUT the command prompt isn't a 'normal' boot - you don't have a floppy in the A: drive do ya?

hello everyone

Yes there is an A: drive (Floppy). Should I purchase a boot/recovery floppy???

I thought you might already have one sitting in the A: drive was all. Obviously NOT!

I suggest you try a Repair Install:
