    BSOD and then constant reboot.. Virus? Plz Help

    I started out posting in the BSOD forum and had awesome help from usasma..aka John. Please see thread below. His latest response was to check the Security Forum. I am hoping you can help. Now when I log on, it goes to desktop for about 10 seconds and then reboots to the safe mode options. All my specs, and things i have tried to date, are in the below thread..

    BSOD for past week. Please help newbie.

    Thank You!!

    Hello zagfreak;

    At this point , I would suggest downloading and running this; VIPRE Rescue - VIPRE Computer Recovery Solution from GFI, in "Safe Mode"

    Follow their instructions.

    Ok, I downloaded and ran VIPRE. 310 threats found, cleaned , and 5 threats deleted. I then "restarted" from safe Mode and it went to black screen with a blinking cursor in upper left hand corner for a couple of minutes-never took me to logon screen? So I then turned power off on pc, waited 30 secs or so, and powered up- same deal- it hung up on black screen with blinking cursor in upper left hand corner. waited 10 minutes and powered up again and it booted up - got to logon screen, and SAME DAMN result, loaded all icons on desktop and went right to reboot. Bout ready to slam my fist through the box! ..... thoughts??? thanks fro your help

    Hello zagfreak,

    It seems that your machine has been overwhelmingly infected, now at this point, your best option is to re-install Windows 7 (also mentioned by usasma in your other thread) and that would have to be a clean install, deleting that partition/drive and then re-format the drive, then do a "Custom Install" (clean/fresh) with your Windows 7 disc.
    Go into "Safe Mode" and save/backup all your important files, pictures, data etc; to another drive or a USB drive or discs before re-installing.

    Keep us posted
