Is this a virus problem?

Post by parable66 » Mon Apr 30, 2007 5:39 am

When i launch live; any version of live 6, it appears to load, and then never does. The same thing just happened on my desktop computer about two days after it started on my laptop. Can an external hard drive attract a virus that would cause this? the only thing i did that compares to the two is that i plugged the external into my laptop (which i use for internet) and then plugged it back into my desktop. is there any good free software that can check for viruses? i dont use internet for much other than e-mail. serious. no porn! haha. but this seriously sucks. I need help soon! im supposed to go on a long 24 hour bus trip and a working copy of live on my laptop would rock my world.
is this a virus? Live 5.2 works fine on my desktop. Dont have 5.2 installed on the laptop.
Im running windows xp home on both laptop and desktop.
destop: 2 gigs ram, 2.8 ghz.
laptop: centrino duo 1.66 ghz, gig of ram (2x 512)
thank you for the help and time yall!

Hi again

If its not related to your absynth/fm8 boot troubles

send a jpg of all your windows process running in the task manager

we'll see but i doubt it could be a virus.
