Windows 7 Registry Problem
I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop that got impacted by malware in the registry. Taking bad advice, I erased what I thought was the culprit file in the registry. Now my computer will not bootup. I realize that I could reimage the entire hard drive with the recovery disks but I would rather restore back to a safe date. Is that even possible when I cannot use safe mode, safe mode - command prompt, computer repair or any other option? The safe mode choices are offered but they do not function. The blue windows screen appears then blinks. After the computer attempts to bootup, it just shows the windows symbol screen (blue) and periodically blinks, nothing more. Are any of the registry repair freewares viable?
Am I completely hosed? Any help would be greatly appreciated....
