Hi,
I have an IBM Thinkpad that runs Windows XP; this is a work-issue computer. Unfortunately, our small business has no tech department. When I turn on the laptop, I get a blue screen and a message stating :
"Checking file systems on c:
type of file is FAT32
volume serial # is 2D62-170A
\documents & settings\all users\application data\AVG7\sched-0002.cfg first allocation unit is not valid. The entry will be truncated."
The computer then briefly acts normally: I get the Windows welcome screen, followed by my usual desktop. After a few seconds, I get the "blue screen of death" and a message:
"A problem has been detected, and Windows needs to shut down your computer. The problem seems to be with ar5211.sys. Then I get a message that an attempt was made to write to read-only memory."
A coworker thought it was a software program, and he tried reinstalling a few things, but when I turned the computer on today, the problem is back. I'm suspecting a security issue, but am not sure. Your help is appreciated; let me know what other info. you might need!
