Windows 7 stuck on "Please Wait..." on startup
Hi all,
Last night I did something pretty dumb and must have gotten my laptop infected in some way after downloading something from "www.roms43.com". As soon as this happened, my computer started freezing and windows explorer crashed. I restarted my computer and attempted to run a full scan using Trend Micro but when I tried to scan, windows explorer crashed once again. This happened a few more times before I booted up in safe mode and ran Malwarebytes & Kapersky. From what I could see, the only unwanted software put onto my computer was "Super Optimizer" which I was able to successfully remove.
During somewhere in the middle of all of this, Windows 7 began freezing on the "Please Wait..." screen when attempting to boot the computer normally. In safe mode, everything works perfectly.
I am coming here hopeful that anyone could assist me on this matter. Thanks in advance.
EDIT: I ran the System File Checker tool and it came up with "Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations."
