Hello,
I need some help I am desperate!!!!!
My windows ME does not want to boot up to Windows, it gets as far as scandisk and after it finnishes scaning it start over again. I went on the web and read some articles on it and someone called it a "Mobius Loop" Before Scandisk pops up there is a message that states -- Windows did not load the registry there is not enough memory to load.-- there is actually a lot more that the message says but thats the jist of it. I am affraid that I got some kind of a virus I tried doing a System Restore out of Safe Mode and that didn't work it said "This program could not help me, try doing System Restore out of MS-Dos"
I also tried to make a bootdisk out of safe mode so i can restart my comp into dos mode. I went to cd\windows\options\cabs and ran the setup.exe file I was told that would reinstall Windows. IT started to scan the disk for errors and found a whole bunch of errors in the c:\Dir00001 folder and prompted me to choose on fixing them. I did this last night and was kind of tired so I didn't get through all of them there was about 200 files in the directory so I was going to continue that tonight. This leads me to beleive that I got so0me kind of a virus because there were so many corrupt files in that directory. I dont even know if I am doing the right thing, I am just trying to get it resolved I am really frustrated cause I dont really know what I am doing.
Last time I had a major problem like this I had to reload everything but because I switched my motherboard and the chip the system restore disks wont work for me So i am stuck. PLEASE HELP I SUCK AT THIS BAD.
