Fake anti-virus starts "scanning" but reboots PC
Hey guys
I was playing League of Legends today when my laptop all of a sudden shutted down and rebooten itself. No big deal I was saying to myself, there was no BSOD or anything else to notify except from the suspect "self reboot".
Well now, about 4 hours later I was still playing League of Legends (probably I'm an addict) when all of a sudden the game shutted down. A fake virus scanner started to "scan" files on my laptop saying that every file was infected. When I tried to download AVG Free I couldn't because the virus shuts down everything I open (even My Computer). After closing every single program loaded at that time, the virus rebooted my laptop and there was a BSOD.
Whatever I do to try installing an anti-virus gets blocked by the virus. My laptop reboots time after time. Is there any way to install a virusscanner as I am not really in the mood to lose about 750 gigabytes of data (better backup next time )? I tried installing AVG Free in safe-mode but AVG Free tells me I can't installed the scanner through safe-mode.
Please help me, I'll add to your reputation if you succeed to help
EDIT: remove this post please, I'm just going to format my computer.
Thanks in advance
