Is your PC running in safe mode?

and try the restore point from as far back a date as possible first

then try and download combofix and run it again

I've now got the black screen back. Tried f8- that isn't working when I press and hold, or tap it (as advised on the guide previously)

Have also tried to restart it and it just brings the black screen back up again.

I can only suggest at the moment that you try a few more times to get it running in safe mode.

I'm assuming you are using Vista ???

sometimes Pc makers change the F8 option , as the Laptop boots does it show something like "boot options" at the bottoom of the creen and something like F10 ??

what make/model laptop ??

Browntoa will tell you if this is possible , but I think it is ?

If you have a memory stick you can install malwarebytes on that ( by using your laptop)
Then try and run it on the infected pc through the memory stick .

I am sure I have done this on a laptop myself for someone.

EDIT

Just be careful (scan for viruses) putting the memory stick in any other pc once you have used it on an infected one

It's a Dell Inspiron PC with Windows 7. Probably should have said that earlier sorry.

When I turn it on it just goes straight to the black screen with a flashing cursor. I've tried F8 when booting, and after and it doesn't bring anything different up.

I've restarted several times and it's the same each time now.
