Not sure who that question is directed at but if you are talking about the Microsoft Standalone product. After double clicking the program that you downloaded and creating the CD that it produces, you need to put the CD into your computer and reboot.
You may have to adjust your BIOS Setup utility to force your CD as the first boot device or you may have an Fkey option at post that support a boot menu when used which allows you to then choose your CD to boot first. And you may want to pay attention from a prompt during the boot process, something like hit any key to boot from CD (good luck finding that any key). Then the program loads and you have quick scan or full scan or custom scan as an option, I would suggest full scan.

I already ran the scan and it found a trojan and removed it, but the problem still exists... It probably isn't a driver problem, since the troubleshoot wizard for the applications that use those drivers are also not working properly... Any ideas?

Hi

Have you run a scan of your system files....

From the elevated Prompt Right click on the Prompt Icon and select run as administrator. Then type…

SFC /scannow Scans and restores system files.

It's worth a try.

The only other thing that I've got is to try and remove the devices that don't work one at a time in Device Manager reboot and let Windows detect and re-install them again.

You'll probably know if it works or not after doing the first one.
I wouldn't try and do them all at the same time.

After that the next option I would try is a repair install.
This was an easy one before Service Pack 1 but now you have to remove service pack one before you do it, which is kind of a pain.
