I have a company computer that's been, for lack of a better term, showing
it's age. (About 2 years old).
This morning on startup (before logging in) I got the message "Warning -
Registry Recovery. One of the files containing the system's Registry data
had to be recovered by use of a log or alternate copy. The recovery was
successful."
This is the first time I've seen this warning. Should I be concerned?
A PC which is only 2 years old is practically brand new, and it most
assuredly should not be showing age no matter how much it has been used.
About the message --- Yes, you should be concerned.
It would be a good idea to run chkdsk. Also, what is the malware status of
the computer?
You do have good backups?

It is a good idea to create a bootable Ubuntu Linux CD that you can
use to boot the system to find out if it is a hardware or software
problem that is the responsible. If Ubuntu can run the system, you
have a problem with Windows. I have used the Ubuntu Linux CD on a PC
with an Intel dual-core Core 2 Duo processor, so it runs on new
hardware.
