Actually here are some things I can provide Process: Intel Celeron 2.20 ghz System Memory: 3072 MB No IDE Master or Slave 1st Boot Device Generic- SM/xD-Pic 2nd Boot Device P0-Hitachi HD 3rd Boot Device P1-HL-DT-ST DVDRAM

Its not my PC so I don't know that much about it, it was reformatted no OS anymore. I just have a flash drive with a boot manager and windows installation on it but it will not read them. I think I might have to actually get a copy of an OS on disk.

Okay it IS recognizing the USB drive, it just keeps a _ _ _ going forever.

So I am helping out a friend that got attacked by a recent virus, and today I got there computer I went through tried to clean out all the issues, but the virus persisted so I decided to reformat it. I have a usb drive that has a boot manager on it but the system cannot detect it and open the boot manager any help? ~*~Warning ITs a E-Machine~*~

Here's a weird question. Would Linux pick up on the same error's as Windows would on a failing hard drive? And if it does pick on those errors, and is switched to but doesn't pick them up is it still the hard drive?

Okay, so am I screwed and it's the hard drive...or am I fine and its hopefully something else? Because that error stops the boot process completely.

Nah it was reset to factory settings. So when in ACHI mode...this error means nothing? PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable. PXE-M0F: Exiting broadcom PXE ROM No bootable device

So it's download and installed... Scanned and found the driver. S.M.A.R.T check = FAIL Short DST - FAIL Short Generic - FAIL Long Generic - FAIL Never used seagate before I hope Im using it correctly.

UGH!!! >< I am unemployed I can't afford to fix anything.

I've managed to some how weasel my way through and got it to boot up -> into login -> and onto desktop but I am getting the warning that Windows detected a hard disk problem. ---------Typical Warning stuff.----------- Which disk is failing The following hard disks are reporting failure Disk Name: TOSHIBA MK3265GSX ATA Device Volume: C:\

Okay, so i let my brother use my laptop after he did something to my desktop (http://forums.pcpitstop.com/index.php?/topic/199381-weird-error-upon-boot/) those errors there. Now when I boot my laptop in AHCI mode (which is the default and I have always used) the error I get is PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable. PXE-M0F: Exiting broadcom PXE ROM No bootable device Now when I start in IDE I can't even get past Starting Windows screen. Information I can give. CPU Type: Intel ® Core i3 CPU M 350 @ 2.27GHz CPU Speed: 2.27ghz HDD Model Name: Toshiba MK3265GS

How do I remove it?

My buddy said it might be called RENOs...

System tray, next to my time and network.

I keep getting this popup that says You have a security problem! I know I didn't download it, so it must be something. Anyknown know what im talking about?
