Hi everybody,

It all started about a week ago...
I turned on my PC and it said:
Searching for Boot Device in floppy....failed.
Searching for Boot Device in CDROM....failed.
Searching for Boot Device in SCSI....failed.

So I thought I had a BIOS virus or something, so I
went to the BIOS and started changing stuff in Boot
Devices, but nothing worked, then I did something else
(to tell you the truth I don't know what I was doing)
and it worked, the boot loader showed up. I booted
into Windows 2000 pro. and after a few seconds it
rebooted! That's when I decied I had a bad virus
somewhere.  I booted into gentoo and it came up with
this (note debian was booting fine):

*Checking all filesystems...
/dev/hda5 was not cleanly unmounted check forced.

<0>Kernel panic: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!

In interrupt handler ? not syncing. 

My question(s):

Could this be a hardware problem instead of a virus?
Could I have done something stupid in the BIOS to
cause this?

Thanks in advance to everyone that may reply,

Gezim Hoxha
