Had virus C drive not booting
My father in law got yet again another virus off of facebook. I told him to shut it down I would look at it in the morning. From what I heard it was the kind that acted like an antivirus program and tried to make him buy it. Well this morning when I booted the pc up a white bar just flickers in the top left hand corner and thats all that it does. A couple years ago I put a new hard drive in as a spare and it was formatted for windows xp like this one is. I booted too it install malware bytes and ran a full scan on both ahrd drives there was 10 instances of infection cleaned them up rebooted computer still same problem. DO you guys know a way to fix it I dont really want to reformar his c drive that has all his info in it thats not backed up. Also when i push recovery it gives me the same blinking white bar. Also when I boot to the other disc drive and windows xp loads it still reads both hard drives and both recovery drives.
