Hey people my mum and dads computer had a trojan virus on it and i installed a new hard drive (this is where i thought viruses would be stored please correct me if i am wrong). After i installed windows xp on the new hard drive and went through all the settings, when i turn the computer on it goes to the log on screen and then restarts itself after that its fine. The computer itself is quite old. Quite a crappy spec 512mb ddr ram dont know about processor or nothing. Any ideas on how i can fix this problem? Many thanks Jay

Although on my other computer i have microsoft security essentials and its very good. I installed microsoft to it (i purchased a cd) as it didnt come with it and i want to use it for college work. I hope i dont have a virus lol only had it a few weeks :/
