Anyone know how to fix a computer? 2008-11-18 14:47:29 Reply

When I went to open up my computer today, it displayed the following message on an ominous blue screen:

A problem has been detected and windows has bas been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps: Disable or uninstall any anti-virus, disk defragmentation or backup utilities. Check your hard drive configuration and check for any updated drivers. Run Checkdisk /F to check for hard drive corruption and then restart your computer.
Technical information:
*** STOP : 0X00000024 (0X00190203, 0X867608b0, 0Xc0000102, 0X00000000)

There are no options or anything available on the screen... And I don't know how to do any of the things that it's asking of me unless it lets me get into Windows... Which it seems reluctant to do.

I know that asking here is kinda a long-shot, but does anyone here know enough about computers to help me out here?

thanking you all in advance,
Ynek.

P.S. Before anyone asks how I got here, I'm using a borrowed laptop to ask this...

Just imagine I wrote something witty and funny here....

Why don't you buy a Mac? They're awesome, and you can install Windows to run Windows-only programs.

Mac OS X is WIN.

Ah, thank you very much, BlueHippo!

I'll go submit my little error screen into that thread right now. Feel free to delete this topic, as I now realise that this was not the place to be dropping my computer-related troubles.

To the computer hospital!!!
