OK Billy and EB...I put the space in and it is in the process of doing the chkdsk now.


Billy, I am not really a technical person...I can do things if they work the way expected and I can research things if they don't, but again if they don't work the way the research says they should, I am lost. I will go back to the sites and burn the hirens CD and see what I can use from that. I appreciate your help and will most likely be going to your site for help.


EB, yes it is an older computer. I have had it for a little over 3 years, maybe almost 4 years now. It has a 60 GB hard drive in it. I was only using 27 GB of that so it was plenty big enough for me. So, we will see what the chkdsk says. It is at step 4 of 5 right now so hasn't started anything I can watch yet. By the way Avast is what I had on the computer in question. It is the one I downloaded after my Norton expired and I was going to have to buy a version of that to keep it. So whatever happened, Avast didn't stop it. It is possible it wasn't caused by a virus, but just because it is old...I know about things falling apart when they get old all too well.


I will be back to post after the chkdsk.
