I have been experiencing problems with my internet connection for the past one month. I must have caught a virus, because every time I went online the whole network in the office wouldn't work. That used to upset my brother, so for a month I haven't touched my computer. Yesterday my bro left for a few days and I thought to fix the problem on my PC.
I tried to reformat booting Windows XP from CD, but it didn't work. So I went to the Bios and made sure *Boot from CD* was the first choice. Still it didn't work. I tried to reformat from floppy in Dos. Again I went to my Bios and changed the first option *Boot from Floppy*. Guess what? It didn't work. So I thought to over-write Windows XP on top of the existing OS. That worked. But the old problem persisted. Every time my PC was on, the network collapsed: no computer could access the internet. I am pretty stubborn and don't give up easily. I thought that maybe now I could try and reformat. I went back to the Bios, made some changes, saved, rebooted, and now all I get is an error message.
*** STOP: 0x000000ED (0x8179BAF8, 0xc0000032, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
I tried to boot in safe mode and I failed. I tried to boot with the last known working settings and I failed. All I get is this error message.
I looked around the internet for answers, I couldn't find any solution.
How to disable the Bios memory options? To be honest with you I have no clue on where disabling the memory options will bring me, but it's one of the things that comes up with the error message: *Disable Bios memory options such as caching or shadowing*
Where I start from?
Any help is truly appreciated.0

Thanks tripredacus for your help but the problem still stays after trying everything suggested in that link so, search about it a lot and at last found a perfect trick who fixed my PC.
So, the article says my boot volume got corrupted and it does what I've found at the end
Here's the command what i use in cmd.
Opened cmd by my windows usb stick, great thing which I've also learned new by the way
Command 1# – Diskpart
Command 2# – List volume
Command 3# – Exit
Command 4# – D: (You’re Windows Drive Letter)
Command 5# – Bootrec /fixmbr
Command 6# – Bootrec /fixboot
Command 7# – Chkdsk /f (Try chkdsk /f /r If “Chkdsk /f” command Wont Works)
Command 8# – Y
After “chkdsk” command completes, just restart my computer and I my problem is solved.
Thanks for your help again
