    Bootable disc AV , results??


    ok long story short, lol, eventually and with stubborn persistence i managed to make the disc(bitdefender) and run it, it came up with
    1 threat, from 1 item, still present in your system:
    Gen.Trojan.Heur.P.@14@fyt8khbi

    so i disinfected that and it was deleted. think that gives it the all clear..
    i put the boot order back to how it was ( that was fun trying to figure that out, in order to get the disc to run in the first place lol)

    was told to post results here also, just in case i needed expert help.

    Bit Defender isn't a program we normally suggest here. Is there the possibility that some other forum made that suggestion.

    Do you currently have any problems?

    i had many probs trying to make a disc with all the others i tried avg first then kaspersky then bitdefender, i had probs trying to make a disc with all of them but stubbornly carried on doing exactly what was asked and eventually it burnt onto disc.
    so what do u suggest? do a different 1, it seemed thorough enough.

    Actually, theres nothing wrong with having the CD Drive boot 1st. This can come in handy if you should get a virus down the road and need to run a boot AV again.

    When the system boots, if it doesn't detect the disk in the drive, it will move on to the next item in line.

    If you think everything is clean, d/l & run a full system scan with Malwarebytes. It would also be recommended that you run a scan with Windows Offline Defender to be sure you got everything.

    Warming: Trojan.Heur is a very malicious item that designed to allow remote access to your computer to largely occupy precious system resource, trace your Internet habits to record/steal your personal information.

    dman,
    Your system specs will be useful to those desiring to help you.

    Update your SevenForums System Specs
    User CP (located on the top menu bar) |
    Your Profile | Edit System Spec
    (left-hand column)

    To gather info, use Speccy (my favorite) or SIW or System Info

    In the System Manufacturer Block, enter:
    Manufacturer and Model and
    ADD the word laptop, desktop, netbook or tablet.
    For example:
    Toshiba Satellite L305D notebook.

    Provide full windows version info, for example:
    MS Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 64-bit

    Use the “Other Info” block for Optical Reader,
    Mouse, touchpad, wifi adapter, speakers, monitor, etc

    Scroll down and click on SAVE CHANGES.

    You will find that in Speccy, you can select info from the display
    using your mouse/touchpad and then paste that info into your specs.

    SIW is a marvelous program, but the free version does not offer
    this capability.

    my problems started i think, when i downloaded a dodgy driver even tho it was from nvidia site ,, my laptop would only start in safe mode until i swapped to onboard graphics but the virus it seems came from a flashplayer i had downloaded, i usually only download from adobe but this was a link from somewhere,
    so the system starts but i cant access many things that i should be able to..
    it wouldnt let me create a recovery disc, i just kept getting error message : unspecified error (0x80004005)
    so now ive made a bootable av and run that, and got the results i posted previously,
    i did a scannow, this said i had damaged files but it could not fix some of them, i tried to access the log but it would no let me not even as 'net user administrator /active:yes'
    and so this is pretty much where i am now

    my laptop is Dell XPS L50 2X
    i7-2630QM
    64bit

    origional reason for this problem was system freeze with this message

    Runtime Error!
    Program: C:\Windows\system32\nvvsvc.exe
    This application has requested the runtime to terminate in an unusual way.

    dman,
    Read that procedure I gave.

    Carry out that procedure to the letter, crossing every T and dotting every i

    If you do, then your system specs will show up when one clicks on "My System Spec" located under the column with your name, join date, etc.
