I finally ran Dr.Web after 2 unsuccessful downloads of 143,232KB with dial-up. I've attached the log files on this post which I've cut and pasted into 2 files less than 512 KBs, the first on this and the second on my next post, and a couple screen captures. The first a Dr.Web message and the second SFC program starting on Windows boot. SFC started to start by itself on boot after I tried to start it?
However, there is no change. My system is still unable to access the WinXP CD, and I guess the Cannon CD, from Windows or from DOS. It can read any other CD in Windows or DOS?
Is there a program which tracks which CD's are read in Windows and DOS? I have not updated the "FastTrack 378(TM) Bios Version 1.00.0.37 (2003) Promise Technology, Inc." BIOS and was opening the Asus manual to check how to update. Any suggestions?
