MichaelG - 38 Posted August 15, 2005 Report Share Posted August 15, 2005 Hello very serios problem currently on my computer... recently my hard-drive just died on me because of a corrupt windows boot file so i went out and bought a new drive. That drive was running fine so id thought i would shove my dead hard-drive in as a slave and see if it would boot and be recognised. It was recognised and i could access all my files, ran scandisk on the drive and I tried setting my old hard drive as the master and see if it would boot, it did But now for some strange reason when im logged-on on my old hard-drive its saying some really odd things... I can't access no programmes at all on my computer because it says "Windows cannot find .exe - This Programme is needed for opening files of type 'application" Also when i try opening something in control panel it displays an error saying "Windows cannot find file 'rundll32.exe' What can i exactly do with the pc now???!!!! is there anything I can do to correct the problem or will i have to reformat yet again ? Remember guys no much point telling me to download any programmes, my computer can't open ANY applications. Thank you for reading one of my long posts yet again. Hope someone can help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelG - 38 Posted August 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2005 OK for some very strange reason everything is now working well... i ran a virus check for 30 mins so must of been some sort of spyware bundled in the windows file. I assume its that... Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
