Trend boot sector virus detection software says I have a
boot sector virus.  I am running dual OS with Win 98 on C
drive and win XP Pro on E drive.  After initial boot, I
normally get a choice of OS's to boot.  Now that I have
received this message, the process gives me now choice, is
having problems accessing high leve memory, and dumps me
with a C drive prompt.
I am using XP setup program to try to access the Recovery
system.  When I select R to use it, it loads drivers,
reboots, then dumps me out at the C drive again.  
How can I either fix the virus or get around it
temporarily?  Using the MS Action Pack of s/w, I had
loaded a large number of MS apps on it, but had many gig
of disk space remaining.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Rick Walker
