dammit help! i need some help with my computer because it is so focked up right now
Problems include:
---not being able to change the resolution of my monitor, either in windows or safe mode (it still rec. my vid card)
---not having a mouse pointer in my screen, thus i have to use arrow keys (optical light is on thought, and windows still detects it)
---i cannot access any files
---i cannot access my cd rom drive or my burner
---i cannot copy any files to a disk
---i cannot run any programs
---i cannot run any games (!)
--i can go on the net but it it not very good with no mouse
i am typing this at school, so my replys may not be so fast
sys specs:
PIII 600 coppermine
asus cusl2c mobo
6x dvd creative las w/ dxr3 board
4x4x24 burner f/ hp
384 mgs ram (pc133)
gerforce 2 gts w/ ddr (creative labs annihilator 2)
win 98 (not SE)
sb 512 pci sound card
microsoft intellieye optical mouse
lynksys lan card (cant remember model num at this time)
PS--------(norton 200 antivirus didnt detect anything at first, b/c i havnt updated yet, and sencond time i tried to run it, it screamed errors at me)
i am thinking that this may be
a) big bad ass virus
b) hacker
is there any possible answer to this problem? or should i just bite the bullet and format?
tnx in advance
