brato92,

If you do not wish to pursue the advice given by Jacee, then, it looks as if we need to burn a Windows 7 RE CD...

Since the system is Windows 7 Home Premium, this is the ISO image:
http://msft.digitalrivercontent.net/win/X17-24209.iso
Download to the Desktop.

This CD is not an installation CD, it just has some tools to get you going.

Also download to the Desktop the Active@ ISO Burner program to create the CD:
http://www.ntfs.com/iso-burning.htm

Instructions:
http://www.ntfs.com/iso_burner_free.htm

Follow the prompts to install the program.

After installing the Active@ ISO Burner, place a blank CD-R in the CD burner drive of the computer.
Double-click the .iso for Windows 7, and the program automatically opens.

Make sure the full path to the ISO image file (on the Desktop) is in the Source field.
In the Target area verify the proper CD Burner drive is selected. (The PC may have more than one.)

Click: BURN

When done, the CD created ejects.

Post back when you get it done, and we will proceed.

Will be back here at around 7:00PM Central Std Time (USA)

TDSSKiller... automates this process, & resets the boot sector back to it's rightful place.

It is your choice. We can go the TDSSKiller route, if you wish, per instructions that follow.

If it does not work, there is still the option to go with the Windows 7 RC CD and FRST64.

Download TDSSKiller.zip:
http://support.kaspersky.com/downloa...tdsskiller.zip
Right-click the program and select: Extract to tdsskiller\

A TDSSKiller folder is found on your Desktop.
Open the folder, and double-click the TDSSKiller application.

When TDSSKiller opens, click on: Change Parameters
Under Additional Options, place a check in the box next to: Detect TDLFS File System
Click: OK

Press: Start Scan

If a suspicious object is detected, the default action is Skip, leave it as is, and click on: Continue
If malicious objects are found, they show in the Scan results.
Ensure Cure (the default) is selected, then click: Continue > Reboot now, to finish the cleaning process.
(Note: If Cure is not available, select Skip, >>Do not select: Delete<<)

When done, the tool outputs its log to the system disk root folder (the disk with the Windows Operating System, normally C:\).

Logs have a name like:
C:\TDSSKiller.2.4.7_23.10.2013_15.31.43_log.txt

>>Please post the TDSSKiller log in your reply.<<

We need to take a look at these results before doing anything else!!

Also, let's also check the partitions in the hard drive to make sure the hidden partition from which Aleuron 'operates' is gone.
