Malware?
Try the Kaspersky Rescue Disc.
You'll need to be more accurate in your description. e.g.
...what does that mean in technical terms?tried bios but nothing...........tried booting from a recovery disk but nothing either
Which Recovery disc? What did you try to do in the BIOS?0 -
it was the kapersky recovery disc i tried but it didnt work - just keeps going to the same screen
do i wish to try and recover the system
normal startup
when i try any of above they dont do anything and when i try safe mode it says theres a fault that cannot be fixed......
im trying to find a free installation cd as i cannot find mine if it did come with one - i do have the product key......0
