I am still confused after reading the thread again....

so let me ask directly...did you try the repair install as suggested?..again, to do this, you would insert your OS CD into the drive (I assume it still opens), then reboot the computer...assuming you have the BIOS set to boot from your drive before the HDD your machine will boot from the CD and you can choose the repair install...

if this fails, and you have your machine set up correctly to boot from CD, then your drives have other issues...do you understand?

on another issue...so your ISP's 'security suite' has LW as a conflict eh?

sounds awful like they did that on purpose to stop filesharing....(read between the lines...they are a§§holes)...I would acquire my own security sweep and tell them what edited for inappropriate language they are...
