Hello Gurus,

This is the first time i am using this forum.I have a issue discussed as below.

I have Acer Aspire 4270 laptop (pre-installed with Linux), bought a year back. I got Windows Xp (SP 2) installed onto that by the shopkeeper. Now that I am installing Windows XP (SP 2) by myself, I am getting a lot of issue. These are summed as below:

1. Problem finding the LAN, Audio, Graphics/chipset drivers on internet.
2. I installed Audio driver (Z01-Audio_XP Vista-v5423whql <-- for Vista) and its working fine. Also I downloaded a LAN driver (working fine). But could not find any graphics driver.

MAIN ISSUE --> SURABAYA VIRUS
------------------------------------------------

3. After performing above stuff, when I create a new folder, I cannot rename it. When I try to delete it, it does NOT gets deleted but in turn creates a new folder with the name "New Folder(1)" or (2) like that.
I have tried formatting the entire hard disk and installed XP 2-3 times, still no luck.

4. Each folder is of size 100kb....right click gives "Test, Configure, Install options"


I am really getting frustrated with the issue.
Searched many forums....still could not get the a solution.

Any help in this regard would be very appreciable.

Thanks..
