Can't install any software on laptop, as all tab buttons come up blank
Strange one here. My son's laptop has suddenly developed a problem where any thing he try's to install loads up as a blank screen and the TAB buttons are also blank. Even Windows task manager has no information in it and no tab buttons.
Tried running Malewarebytes, but that gets displayed in a blank window half the size of the screen, with just an X in the corner.
His AVAST is showing no problems.
Any other security software I try to load just gets displayed in a blank screen.
I am trying to install stuff onto a flashdrive, via my PC, and run in on his laptop, to see if this works.
Registry Mechanic, works, and showed loads of problems, but still the screen was blank, so we just hit the TAB button that we new was repair.
Still can't get malewarebytes to run - this gets a runtime error (0)
Any ideas what could be causing this.
Please note, my son did have his youtube account hacked, and SKYPE stopped working as well.
