Hi,
I just downloaded the newest updates for the free AVG anti-virus, etc. (7.1) and ran the scan for my harddrive. For some reason, in the second entry of the scan (which is for the boot sector of drive c, my harddrive), it says there was a reading error:
Object: Boot sector of disc C:
Result: Reading error
Status: Error
...however, there was never any error before I updated to 7.1 (though that could be a coincidence). Before, it would just say:
Object: Boot sector of disc C:
Result: Ok
Status: Quick checked
Why would this be? My computer boots up fine, so what does it mean that there's an error reading the boot sector? And is this something I can/should fix somehow?
I also have ZoneAlarm and am running Windows 98SE.
Any help is appreciated -- thanks!
