okay

my sister came from college and used limewire and attracted some spyware into my computer

it was annoying and since i dont do much with my desktop i just backed it up and re-formatted it with a WIndows XP CD.

the first day it worked fine, but as i turned the computer off, it wouldnt turn off. So i let it sit for a day, but no progress.

so i hit the reset button, and once again, my desktop was stuck at loading the Windows Page. So I let it sit there for a whole day again, and still no progress. I tried putting the WIndows CD in D drive and reinstalling it, but that stage is also stuck at "System is checking for windows...."

and now, my CD-rom doesnt even respond and open. I managed to get the CD back out, but what do i do to save my computer?

thanks

  1. It would be better to select REPAIR first before reinstalling the Windows operating system on your computer. Once you have managed to have your CD-ROM work, I would suggest that you place the Windows CD and then select Repair (R) to make sure that the important files you have on your desktop will be saved. If in the case the same things happened, I would recommend that you will need to reformat your computer's hard disk and reinstall Windows.


  2. make sure the computer is off and the power connection is out of the computer

    put the computer off and remove the hard drive on the back of the computer hard drive  you will see a Plastic Clip put that on the slave jumper pin  then put the hard drive in other computer the hard drive will boot up as a slave drive then remove Lime wire from your  hard drive and use the antivirus and anti spyware too remove all virus & spyware from your  hard drive when you have all of limeware files off your hard drive then put  the Plastic Clip  back on to the master  jumper pin and then put the hard drive back in your computer
