[Dev-C++] Major PC Problems

[Jack K. <k_f...@ho...>]

Hello,

I have a major problem.  Every time I try to use my PC, it only works for a 
few minutes.  Then the blue screen of death comes up and says I have a fatal 
error OE and a fatal error 06 always at the same address.  I keep getting 
file names that are too long when they weren't like that the last time I 
booted my PC.  Now there are a bunch of new folders under C:\ like 
C:\Dir00001, C:\Dir00002,...  These folders are nothing.  When I open them 
it just leads back to C:\, but under a different name.  When ever I run 
Scandisk, I get a fatal error OE at 0028:D0000000.  Every once in a while my 
PC won't even boot, it says hirem.sys and others are damaged, then after a 
few minutes of leaving it off, it loads fine.  Also, I keep getting check 
sum errors for my BIOS every once in a while.  If anyone knows what is wrong 
with my PC, any help would be greatly appriciated.

Mild hard drive failure or a virus perhaps?

hmm bad checksum?

you might want to try and flash your bios &or first you may also want to =
try and clear the cmos on your mbd by loading setup defaults or by maybe =
jumpering the bios jumper in your system?
Do you have loads of ram?  Maybe this is what you should be looking at?
If you are getting fatal exceptions maybe you should be looking at a =
pci/isa card or ram or sumthin that is causing the fatal exception, have =
you just recently added a new device to that system if so could you try =
to remove it and it's driver?
Either way if you seem to be having folders created arbitrarily then =
maybe you should write zeros to your harddisk =
ftp://ftp.gateway.com/pub/hardware_support/drivers/win3.x_and_dos/mass_st=
orage/hard_drives/7510009.exe
repartition and format the hdd or just find the virus/program that is =
making the files yeah?

I suspect a virus. The Dirxxx are corrupted folders that scandisk tries to
restore and since it does not know their original names it assigns new to
them. Download an antivirus. I suggest F-PROT which i have tested in various
virus situations (the dos version).

Btw if you find a file infected with a virus please send it to me at
no...@ya... before you clean it because i collect these things. :)
