linux fixed a windows error!

[lovely?]

ok my computer, as many know, has been broken for the past several months. a problem with dll. files caused it to freeze up on the windows loading screen. i tried installing linux yesterday, and it was met with error after error, but then something miraculous. i turn off my computer and back on, and much to my amazement, windows started up like nothing had happenend!!!!! i toyed with it awhile, and found the linux quick fix was extremely partial, and i have a time-bomb of a computer on my hands. i did a system restore, and that stopped a few problems, but there is still one large problem: anything that ends with dll. sends my computer to the blue screen with an error that says: windows has been shut down in order to keep from harming your computer. this happens whenever a program is installed, uninstalled, updated, and any other thing in a computer that has anything to do with dll.

are there any ways to fix a dll problem? i think ccleaner might be able to handle it, but i cant install programs remember? any ideas?

hmm thats nasty. i'd say a good backup of your data and reformat and reinstall windows, but thats a bit drastic.
open up command prompt and type

chkdsk /r

it will prompt you to reboot and go into DOS at startup. or better yet put in your XP installation CD and boot from it, then go to recovery console, and type the same command. it has worked wonders for more than a few computers.
