I posted this in the wrong section first! The system keeps rebooting over and over after this message appears for a quick second!

STOP: c0000218 {Registry File Failure}
The registry cannot load the hive (file):
\SystemRoot\System32\Config\:Software:
or its alternative.
It is corrupt, absent, or not writable.

Beginning dump of physical memory
Physical memory dump cpmplete. Contact your system
technical support group.

Does this sound like a virus wipped out the H-Drive?
Any help please?
Bill
P.S. Its an IBM Think Pad with Windows 2000 Pro OS.
