    Default Blue screen problems

    Hi, I recently added an extra 1GB of RAM onto my system. I also loaded Microsoft Flight Sim X. Every time I ran FSX my pc would freeeze, requiring a system reset to recover the system. I also started getting a lot of Blue Screen instances. The first of these occurred during a routine defrag and gave the following:

    STOP: 0x00000024 (0x001902FE, 0xF78C2BBC, 0xF78C28B8, 0xF7B77467)
    Ntfs.sys - Address F7B77467 base at F7B52000, Datestamp 45cc56a7

    I tried to do a virus scan and the pc kept crashing before the scan completed, each time giving me a Blue Screen event.

    I have now uninstalled FSX and removed the additional 1GB of RAM. I ran a virus scan and got the following message:

    Virus Name: Win32\Harnig!generic
    Location: C:\WINDOWS\fd.exe<loadadv703.exe>

    I am using CA Anti-Virus Ver 8.4.0.24

    My PC is a home built system running Windows XP Home Edition with SP 2

    My virus software does not provide any apparent fix for the Harnig infection. Can you offer any advice please?

    Regards
    Andy

    Are you able to produce a HJT log as shown here: "BEFORE you POST"(READ this Procedure BEFORE Requesting Assistance) and post it in the Malware Removal Forum as you did last time?

    Cheers.

    Hi Andy,

    I don't know if this helps or not, but that stop error is documented:
    http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;228888

    Have you tried running a disk check, to see if you have any file system or physical disk errors (maybe caused by that virus)?

    Edit: removed. This forum's purpose. Thanks.


    Good Luck,

    Ok folks, I've done the whole Spybot bit and sorted out a disk error; I've deleted a dodgy file and things seem to be ok now. Many thanks for the assistance.

    Regards

    Andy
