Windows Security Center won't turn on

hOk, well, I just did the steps from (Startup Repair Infinite Loop Recovery) which that replaces the 5 files from regback and that fixed the blue screen error that I had from messing with the SAM in registry earlier. THanks. The files were from 4/23/14 in regbak. Now, in the actual config folder, there were backups in that folder of those 5 files, with .bak extentions from 4/28/14 before this all happened too.

So, this got me back to the original issue, which is the black screen with a mouse pointer after the windows logo... Anymore ideas?

(I wanted to say thanks. This isn't something anyone locally here can help with and places like certain big box store won't help with stuff like this, they just restore and don't want to dig down deep)

When did the problems start? After some buggy installation?
Does "safe mode" work? Same problem in "safe mode"

Well, this pc had windows update off for some time. It got switched on and had 150 updates. I stopped it before it got to the 2nd update, not sure if this was the cause, but only 1-2 installed. After that, upon a reboot, it tried to run a scan, the windows scan where it goes through steps 1-5, this is the scan that can happen when you power off manually sometimes, but it was taking like 3 hours to go through it and I had to power off because I needed the pc. I think then it when this started.

=>Did you remove ZEROACCESS????

That was from a log when I was running rkill, or another program. I think it was removed, but not sure how to check since it won't boot? The computer was fine though after running rkill, antispyware, combofix, etc, with multiple reboots, until the windows update and system scan were aborted.

Do I read correct???

-non of the "safe modes" boot successfully
-"system restore" from "recovery options" : 3 system restore points, but when you select one it fails. What error message?

Correct. Safe modes try to load, but then go to black screen with mouse pointer like normal booting.

I remember having these 3 restore points, but when I click system restore, it tries to load something, then in 1-2 sec, you get the window "no restore points have been created". Before it says that, it looks like it's trying to open that window where they'd be listed, but quickly in 1-2 sec goes to that splash screen, with the "no restore points...." I did try the command in dos rstruni,exe, I might be spelling that wrong, and same thing happens, it says there are none but I know there were there.

Please see this page ZeroAccess removal with RogueKiller

I can't run that since I can't boot. How do I check to see if it's gone?

also, I was going to do this next, SFC /SCANNOW : Run in Command Prompt at Boot

I followed steps and it says, "There is a system repair pending which requires reboot to complete. Restart Windows and run SFC again. But everytime I try to reboot and try this sfc, it says that....

Thanks. It's too big to paste, so I attached it. Thanks to everyone for the fast replies. I'm dying here.
