    They are both standard windows drivers. I wouldn't like to hazard a guess what else may be wrong.

    I'd say that your best bet is to backup all your personal files (if you can) and either restore your latest backup or assuming you don't have one reinstall windows or reset the machine back to makers defaults by whatever mechanism it came with.

    Try to restore it or if you feel there are so many virus then just re-install Windows.
