Hello. I have 4 PC's. An acer aspire one, two dell laptops, and an old dell desktop. The acer and the dell desktop are running windows 7 ultimate. The dell laptops are running windows xp and the other windows 7 pro(all of these are x86/32bit). Anyway so yesterday, the xp laptop gave black screen with a cursor when booted up(safe mode too), then the problem progressed tot the BSOD. We called Dell, booted it from a USB drive, and they said the HDD was corrupted. Then the other did the same thing this morning AKA right now. so far it is in stage 1, otherwise known as black screen with cursor. There were NO file transfers between the two(IE email attachments, FTPs, torrents, P2Ps, etc. ). I CANNOT afford for the Acer to do this as it has work and coding projects on it!
I have no idea what this is. Virus, malmaintainence, bug, etc or even if this "thingymajig" is eve taking out the entire hard disk as opposed to just the windows partition.
Hypothesis- worm/vrus/trojan spreading via LAN
