Hey folks,

One of my systems at work -- which, believe it or not, was never
outfitted with virus software (not my choice) -- picked up a virus
yesterday. Sometime during fixing it, my Windows 2000 install became
damaged. Explorer.exe would crash on every bootup and, more often
than not, the system would blue screen (IRQL_BLAH_BLAH) and reboot.

I wanted to recount a little about what I did in the hopes someone
can critique my actions and, perhaps, help me learn a bit more about
recovering such an install.

I ran these things, in varying order:

1. System File Checker.

2. CHKDSK (from Recovery Mode)

3. Recovery Mode automated Tests

4. Extracted fresh copy of Explorer.exe from Win2k CD.

None of these things helped. Since it was a plain-vanilla
workstation, it was nothing to then reformat and reinstall.

What else should I have done?

Cheers,

Mike Whalen
