My System

scary pop up!

does anyone know what this means?


this pops up on my machhine, when i go to restart in dos mode.....

the only way i can get my machine into dos is by using one of my many CD's that i have made to boot my machine into various states of dos..... and they are all for certain games... so they all do it differently.

i have to alt+f4 to get rid of it, because the one time i did clicked it the machine did go to dos mode, but it opened some odd dos program that started to read the drive information, and then i hit my reset button....

as far as i can tell, i did it just in time.

i have ran 3 virus scanners on it, and nothing...

housecall couldnt find anything wrong, and i tried to do a compare to an old copy of my hard disk, and it doesnt show that any system files of any kind have changed...

so i guess my next reinstall will be sooner than i thought, LOL
