    K, I figured burning a backup wouldnt work for DVD. Well.. I'll see what I can do.

    Alright well, I reformatted my drive, then re-installed windows.. but I'm still getting the corrupt files and random programs shutting down from errors..

    Then I ran a MemTest i found, and for the first 3% I got up to 130+ errors, now do you think thats from the virus that I had, or my memory is just shot and I need to buy new RAM to fix the problem?

    Okie dokie, heres the logs you asked for. I ran these in safe mode.

    It seems to me you`ve found the culprit. I.E faulty ram.

    Replace the ram and see if that solves your problem.

    Is your HJT log from before or after you reformatted?

    Regards Howard :)

    So...

    Yea that log was after I reformatted the computer, and reinstalled HJT and avenger. And Im not really sure what u mean by culprit ram. I dont know what my brother was thinking but when he installed the ram, he but 4x256 ram to equal 1g. So If i but new ram everything should be fine? Cause I was thinking of getting knew Ram anyway :)


    and thnx so much for all the information to help my computer

    You should test each stick of ram individually in order to find out which stick or sticks of ram are faulty.

    Regards Howard :)

    well, I figured out that it was the RAM, I checked all the sticks and one of the four ended up bein corrupt, with the BSOD error. So then I drive 30 miles to get a new sticks of RAM ( 2x1g ) and come home to find out that it doesn align up with inputs, or with the other computer in the house.... hah the problems never end.

    But anyway thnx for the help, Im sure I'll be posting agian soon :)

    Thnx agian, Cheers.

    Could you look up the RAM type you have? Like speed and stuff.

    You can download Everest from Majorgeeks.com since the original creators don't support the free version any more :)

    If you live in the US / Canada we can help you pick out cheap RAM for you to help your problem!!!
