Attempting to reinstall my OS and Reformat....
kaarinah:
I believe some motherboards needs drivers to be able to run SATA-discs as system discs. I know mine did and we had to copy them to a floppy that Windows asked for in the beginning of the installation.
My guess is that if you have a SATA-disc as system disc the floppy you found is what it's asking for.
Jelenedra:
Mmkay, thanks everyone. I'm trying to get this figured out.
Hopefully I'll be able to do it on my own NEXT TIME. (knocks wood)

Ran into a nasty, nasty over the weekend and my virus cleanups can't get it all. Soooo since my pc is strictly a gaming PC with no personal info or anything saved on it other than husband's wrestling promo pics. I was just going to reinstall windows and reformat the harddrive to clear up the nasty thing that liked to mascarade as a windows security alert.
Would that be the wonderful Winfixer pop up?
Jelenedra:
Mmm, I dunno. It would say stuff like "You have a virus! Click here to download a free scan!" "A program is attempting to send to an unknown source!" "You have over the minimum 7 spyware blah blah"
"Dlasse.exe has terminated unexpectantly. Windows is shutting down!"
But then it wouldn't shut down. The box just vanished.
Then every once and awhile it would pull up my IE and take me to antispywarebox.com for a FREE SCAN!

These programs and the people who create them are a total menace! Watch out too for a company calling itself InKline Global and read what it says here.
