I was at my friend's house the other day and was trying to set up his pro-96 radio scanner on this software called win96 that I had just downloaded for him. I had to select the right com port in order for it to work though, from the program. So I went into settings and it was on com 1, obviously the wrong com port.
Remembering that on my computer I used either com3 or com4, I selected com3 and hit ok. The computer froze, and went into a blue screen with all these words and the last line of text said something about physically wiping hard drive with a little timer next to it. I couldn't get out of this screen at all, so I unplugged the computer and plugged it back in. Now everytime we start the computer back up it just goes to a black screen and says, "error loading operating system."
My friend and his parents have contacted several people who say they need a new computer. They might also have geek squad try to fix it. Any help or suggestions?
Highpockets, I downloaded it from starrsoft.com
