What's in the .bat file?

It should be just a plain text file.

You get a DOS prompt? If so, find the file and just and enter:

code:
type tamrof.bat


This will display the file to the screen.

Need a little more info...

So no DOS prompt?

If not, start the computer with a boot disk (floppy).

LOL!

You don't know any DOS commands?

Try typing
code:
cd "dir name"
to go the directory with the file. Type
code:
dir
to list all files and dirs in the current directory.

Should be somewhere like this:

code:
c:\mydocu~1\myrece~1


Hope this helps, else let me know.

it works thanks so much

i written the file down here what it says:

code:
tamrof.bat type 'This is a joke please read the filename the other way' rem format c:\ /y


so what do i have to do now

OK, so this file is not the cause of your problem.

The format c: command isn't executed because of the REM statement in front of it, so don't worry about it.

Don't have a lot of ideas of what is wrong with your comp, but you can try to do a registry scan. Maybe it'll help...

In DOS prompt just type
code:
scanreg
