If you still want to use Azureus with java, I suggest you get a better version of Java to download. Anyways, I have heard good things about BitComet as you can lower the amount of ram use in the settings. Download link here: http://www.bitcomet.com/

PC Model: Dell Dimension 2100
OS: Windows XP Pro SP2
RAM: 256mb
Video: 16mb
Hard Drive: 80gb (only have around 3gb since a virus took around 50gb, and I don't have my WinXP cd to reformat)

Also, when I try to run Azureus, I get an error saying that my java.dll is not a valid windows image

I do not have my WinXP cd, it's in a storage shed, we're getting ready to move, we're waiting for the deed. I also heard that I need my WinXP cd to reformat my hard drive.

why not download another copy? any copy of winxp will do, check suprnova for one with all the service packs slipstreamed. Why can't you get back your hard drive space without reformatting & what virus did this?

Can you borrow an xp disc from a friend?

I can not use BitTorrent much, the reason I asked for a low ram use client, is since it will crash my computer when my RAM goes too low. And, I have no idea what did that to my hard drive, but the day that happend (almost a month ago), my antivirus did not find a single virus... and yes my definitions are up to date (I am using AVG 7)

Hunted, go to http://www.grisoft.com/us/us_remtext.php?id=bagbugnet and download vcleaner.exe, restart your pc in safe mode and run vcleaner, this should remove any virus you're got cos avg's scan might've missed something.:)

Alright, thanks, downloaded it, I'll run it after BT is running (downloading something in BT, it seems to be working good... downloaded 500mb+ so far) ... after I finish downloading this, going to download WinXP

=Edit=
Alright, almost ready to download WinXP, which should I download WinXP pro with SP2 integrated or WinXP Corp SP2?

I am currently downloading "Windows XP Pro Corp incl. SP2_(BY AL-LORD)_(arabsgate.com)" anyone know if that would work?

Can't see why it wouldn't work, unless your hard drive is knackered, have you tried system restore and scandisc?

yes the CORP version is the best version if you are going to be downloading windows.

I posted the whole problem, but it was all deleted once the forum system was changed to vb3. Well, when I got that error with my HD, all my system restore points were removed.

Have you scanned your h/d to see if it's got any bad sectors?

Hunted
10-23-2004, 09:25 PM
No, do you know of any good bad-sector scanner program? I am suprised, I was able to download WinXP without a single error (yipee)

Update the drivers for your modem and graphic card.

Hunted
10-24-2004, 10:56 PM
Alright, for the modem driver, all the drivers are for USB, and I don't use a USB to connect, I use a network cable, does that even matter?

(My modem is a Toshiba PCX2600

You reformatted your h/d, this means you lost all your latest drivers, update all the drivers you can think of.;)
