Installed Spybot but what the hell did it do?
Hello, sorry i couldnt come up with a better title :(
But thing is this: I installed spybot 2, and let it do its work with nothing touched!
And although im very carefull with my computer (work with it) it did found a babylon directory, and some other things...it thought it needed looking into. (no dangerous stuff)
So as the items were selected i clicked fix and that was that.....I did the full scan again....and noticed it took a long time practically eating up most CPU at some moments up to 99%.
Dinner was ready, came back ...only to see a message on my screen that i had to hit a key and choose a drive device...whatever...
I was surprised cause i had no clue where it came from.
And as far as i can tell its caused by spybot because of the resources it uses and then quits at 100% CPU.
Then today, it seems spybot does things on its own cause when i was not at computer and came back, same screen...that i had to hit a key and choose a drive device..
But i cant from that moment, i can only shutdown, turn on and hit F12 and pick the HD device, and then all is fine.
I just downloaded upgrade of norton 360, restarted, the same thing...
My question is, before even installing spybot my computer was fine,runs great, no weird screens.
Why do i have to reboot, hit F12 to even get into my computer...
See attachment....
Could you find the Checks logfile from the scan right before this started happening?
The location of the Spybot log files are in one of these locations,depending on your operating system:
XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Logs
Windows Vista and Windows 7:
C:\ProgramData\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Logs
The Checks log is dated,so you should be able to find the results of the scan right before you had to choose a drive,etc. on your computer
It is in this format:
Checks.yymmdd-hhmm
If unable to see ProgramData or Application Data,please show hidden files and folders:
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial62.html
And what is your laptop,a Dell,an Acer,etc?
And your operating system?
I can't find any results online of anybody else getting this message:
"hit a key and choose a drive device"
Would it be saying hit any key,or a key in particular,etc.?
Hello,
Im on a acer aspire ax5900 , win7 upgraded to win8.
The error shown in windows error event log is kernel -power. thats probably the problem...as spybot took so many resources that it shut down to protect. But i dont understand the text i get to hit a key or pick a device....cause its a text and nothing works...
I just rebooted, hit F12 and i got the screen to pick the HD, thats it...
Before installing spybot, the machine runs great...so why use spybot?
Thought it couldnt hurt....or can it?

Hi,there.Thanks for posting your logfile,laptop,etc. :)
No results on hit a key or pick a device except for the both of us. :D:

I did find similar,though.Would the text you are seeing at first be?:
"Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key"
Hello,
It could be....im not sure but it comes close....
So...should i uninstall it?
Or leave it for now....
Does it scan by itself?
Ok,thank you. :)
Yes,it does.Spybot should have a task set to scan,but it should only run on the first day of each month,so it should not run a scan right now.
Your attachment,is that the boot screen that comes up when you press F12?
Yes it is......
But thing is, when it all happens...why isnt the boot sticking to the HD ?
You hard drive doesn't appear to be listed there in your attachment,actually.It is just cd/dvd,two usb,and LAN.
After you hit F12 and get to that screen,can you tell me what you do in order to boot into Windows?
Just as an extra precaution,if you haven't done a backup lately,you might want to consider it.
I found this article here that might help along with that:

Hello,
Well it did happend again after i was creating a movie with cyberlink.
But now i could type the error:
"Reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key"
That was it..
But i must say, i did un-installed spybot...
Dinner was ready, came back ...only to see a message on my screen that i had to hit a key and choose a drive device...whatever...
I was surprised cause i had no clue where it came from.
Then today, it seems spybot does things on its own cause when i was not at computer and came back, same screen...that i had to hit a key and choose a drive device..
I just downloaded upgrade of norton 360, restarted, the same thing...

I am no expert in such things,but it seems to me to be that your computer is rebooting on it's own sometimes,for some reason.Some insight into that might possibly come from viewing the event log.
I think what may be happening when your computer reboots(or when you do it,as well,since you mentioned rebooting after the upgrade of Norton 360.)is that your computer is looking for your hard drive when it starts,and not finding it.Hence,the "Reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key" message.
Then you are restarting and pressing the F12 key,which is taking you to the Advanced Boot menu.As I mentioned,I did not see your hard drive listed in your screenshot.I'm unsure what you do once you get there to get windows to start.For example,would you be changing one of the boot devices to your hard drive,and then windows boots?
What is the underlying issue,why is your computer rebooting sometimes?
For that matter,why is your hard drive not being recognized when your computer restarts?And if the attachment you posted is what you always see after pressing F12,why is your hard drive not listed there,that I can see?
If you search for "Reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key" you'll find many people with the same issue,and it seems to be anything from a cable is loose,right to (unfortunately) that the hard drive is failing.As I said above,I'm no expert in this,and most definitely not a hard drive expert.I'm just reporting what I'm seeing.It would be irresponsible for me to get you to change your boot order in BIOS,since,as I mentioned before,what's the underlying issue,why is your computer sometimes rebooting.And when it does why is it asking for a boot device,why isn't your hard drive being recognized?
Would your computer still be under warranty?
Did you consider backing up your computer,as an extra precaution?
Hello, im no expert either, but all seems to be back to normal, and if it starts to do "it" again even without spybot installed i would sure tell.
Looking at the check disc all seems to be fine, no errors.
As far as boot order, that seems to be correct....
It wasnt the issue of rebooting sometimes :)
but it started all right after i installed spybot.
It didnt hurt, but my computer did showed some odd behaviour after that...
I installed Spybot on a clients machine - Win 7 x64 Dell M4700, cleaned the system. After that client's machine would not detect a HDD. It asks for boot media to be inserted. Uninstalled and it seemed fine for days. Reinstalled Spybot and exact same thing.
I have now uninstalled and all seems fine again.
Hello Jimtho,

Which version of Spybot-S&D do you have and is it licensed (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?16402-Corporate-Edition-Technician-Edition-Service-Edition-Small-Business-Edition-sbNet)? :)
Best regards.
