Okay, I hold a little problem here. I am constantly getting an error message. It shows the following:
Windows - No Disk
Exception Processing Message c0000013 Parameters 75b6bf7c 4 75b6bf7c 75b6bf7c
Cancel Try Again Continue
----------
Now, the last three show the options I can choose from, but no matter what I pick it pops up again, forcing me to hard restart. The biggest thing is that it keeps coming back after a certain amount of time.
WTH is going on and how can I fix this?
---------
Oh, and on a side note, I recently ran a virus-scan on my computer and found a Trojan from, guess who? Nabil r. And it's just from downloading a pic. Dang! We ban him and look what he's doing now. :(
You mods were far more than right to ban him. He's nothing but trouble.
-
The error shows up when you try to put in a disc in the harddrive?
And dang, Nabil sent you a trojan? o.o How'd you know it was Nabil?

First question: The error pops up at random. It pops up when I restart the computer for whatever reason, it pops up when I open Google Chrome, it pops up when I open Photoshop, etc.
Whether or not it shows up is completely random. It just doesn't disappear unless I do a hard restart. I want to know what's going on and how to fix it and so that it doesn't pop up again.
Second question: I checked the trojan file and it showed his name right on it. How's that for pleading guilty? And all I did to get it was download a pic from him. How sad is that? Even pics aren't safe on the net. :(
-
How odd. I wouldnt expect Nabil r. to make virusses.
-
Well hopefully you'll find a solution to the first problem. :)
And I'm sorry that Nabil sent you a trojan. :( Hopefully he'll get caught.

I also have Nabil R as an MSN contact and I've noticed that every so often, when he signs on, a second account also signs on with him. I've seen scams like this before and it's not cool. It's basically a bot that automatically sends out the link via the person's MSN contact list :angry:
Not to defend the guy, but something tells me that Nabil R's probably fallen for this trick himself if he's now passing it on to others. That's normally how this kinda scam works. Given his attitude and naive nature when he was a former member here, I don't think he's quite got the mental capacity to be able to create a trojan.
Hope you've got some recovery tactics pokeplayer! Sorry to hear you got stung by such a rotten trick <_<

Well, he probably only has the mental capacity to make a weak trojan because all it took to remove it was the scan I did. AVG easily got rid of it. :)
But I still have that error problem. Ugh! What in the world is causing this thing?

Sounds like a harddrive going bad if you get "no disk" as an error message. That means that something can't be read on the hard disk usually.
You might want to consider some backups of your most important stuff....now.
-
Maybe do a scandisk. I think you can have windows xp do that when you boot the computer next.

Easy fix Pokeplayer. Did you recently install something with a CD or DVD disk? If so, pop it in again. You installed a program that requires the disk again and you don't put it in so it keeps asking for it. I'm guessing a printer, but it could be anything you were trying to install that didn't install right. Doing a system restore would be quite easy and would most likely get rid of the error message.
EDIT: Oh, and it doesn't have to be a disk. It could be an external hard drive or flash drive as well. Your computer can't find the files where it found them before so it's freaking out. The files were on a CD, DVD, Flash Drive, or External Hard Drive and you removed it and now the computer can't find the files.

Well, the System Restore worked. :)
I'll take my time to check out everything and see what could've caused the error in the first place. After all, an error that doesn't go away... you don't want it again. :P:
-
Ohhh THAT disk error. :p :slap
-
Still can't figure out what caused the error in the first place. The last time I ran into it was when I opened Photoshop CS3. Did a System Restore, opened Photoshop CS3 again, no error. The time before that was just restarting the computer. Before that was Opening Google Chrome.
I can't seem to pinpoint exactly what's causing it. It's always something different and it's triggering the exact same error. So I'm really stumped on this one.
Haven't run into it since I tried Photoshop, so that's good news so far, but I would like to know exactly what is making it happen. At least then, I can figure out a way to get rid of it for good.
Any suggestions?

Did you even read my previous message Pokeplayer? That error can ONLY be caused by some file the computer needs being somewhere else other than the hard drive and the computer keeps trying to access it. If you installed a program via CD, external hard drive, flash drive, or other removable media, you took the files away before the computer was done with them. One example would be with photoshop (the legal full version only). You install it and then it asks you to restart. If you eject the disk before restarting, you'll get that error every time you start up at random intervals because the computer is looking for the files on the disk to complete the installation.
