In the Boot menu, which is accessed by pressing F12.
I also made a CD with the sweeper tool, and while it boots, the program fails to start:
"Microsoft Standalone System Sweeper cannot be started. Please contact support. Error code: 0x8004cc05". | My System Specs | | |

That means you did not perfectly follow the directions I gave.
Start over and this time follow each and every step precisely. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Toshiba Satellite S875D-S7239 laptop OS MS Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 64-bit CPU AMD A10-4600M Motherboard AMD Pumori (Socket FT1) Memory 6.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 798MHz (11-11-12-28) Graphics Card AMD Radeon HD 7660G Sound Card High Definition Audio Device Monitor(s) Displays Generic PnP Monitor (1600x900@60Hz) Screen Resolution 1600x900@60Hz Keyboard Standard PS/2 Keyboard Mouse HP Wireless Optical Mobile Mouse Model FHA-3410 Hard Drives SSD 119GB Corsair CSSD-V128GB2 ATA Device Internet Speed What the local pub, local coffee shop offers.

I was able to get the CD to work. I had to disable the floppy drive (which I don't even have) on the BIOS and Device Manager.
The Sweeper found one virus, and now Windows Update is ON, but when I open it, I see a blank, unresponsive window. | My System Specs | | |

Yonyz,
The results of System Sweeper will be in: \Windows\Standalone System Sweeper\Support as one or more files with a LOG extension.
Attach those files to your next post please. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Toshiba Satellite S875D-S7239 laptop OS MS Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 64-bit CPU AMD A10-4600M Motherboard AMD Pumori (Socket FT1) Memory 6.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 798MHz (11-11-12-28) Graphics Card AMD Radeon HD 7660G Sound Card High Definition Audio Device Monitor(s) Displays Generic PnP Monitor (1600x900@60Hz) Screen Resolution 1600x900@60Hz Keyboard Standard PS/2 Keyboard Mouse HP Wireless Optical Mobile Mouse Model FHA-3410 Hard Drives SSD 119GB Corsair CSSD-V128GB2 ATA Device Internet Speed What the local pub, local coffee shop offers.

The file infected is dvm.dll, which belongs to the game Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena (it's a cracked file, which could be the reason the Sweeper thinks it's a virus). | My System Specs | | |

No, that BGE file is not cracked. It's a Good Old Games package. No way they would put a virus inside it.
The infected cracked file is called dvm.dll, and belongs to the Riddick game. And I did quarantine the file, but now Windows Update is off again.
Honestly, I don't think it's a virus. My brother messed with the networking services a few weeks ago, trying to get sharing to work between two Windows 7 computers, though he didn't succeed at that. | My System Specs | | |
