Windows won't start - No solution in sight
Hello
I got a virus or malware the other day. Internet tabs just kept opening indifinetly, and then my computer restarted. On restart, it couldn't load and it did the startup recovery but failed. No useful errors. Just said it could not fix the problem.
I tried system restore, which says it completed successfully (even though i thought it had to restart before saying this), but when it restarts it has the same issue.
I tried booting off the windows cd but the repair doesn't work, and when i hit install, it tries to find drivers for the cd drive even though it is already reading the cd......
The command line seems useless. It says X:\system so I can't even browse to another directory. I tried sfs /scannow but it says something about a restore operation not being complete and a restart being required. After restarting, scannow says the same thing.
I'm not sure what to do now. Is there a good virus removal tool that I can boot off of and clean my drive?
Thanks!
