No task manager and can't type into the prompt? this isn't sounding good at all
Almost Virus like infact.
But as they say, there's more than one way to skin a cat!
Right click on any folder or "my computer"
select tools > folder options > view and uncheck "hide file extensions for know file types"
Hit apply
Now create a new text document on your desktop area (right click), open it and type/copy in:
%widir%\PCHealth\HelpCtr\Binaries\msconfig.exe
pause
Save the file
Now rename it to anything you like, but change the .txt part to .bat
The icon will change to a little box with a cog inside it.
Run the file, this should now open msconfig... Then try the above.
You can also do a system restore from there is you want to try that.“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”
