Hello,
I let my brother borrow my computer and he gave it back with some malware that caused it to run very slow. Best-buy did the scan and found that some of the system32 files got screwed up. I cannot boot into safe mode by pressing F8 and its driving me crazy. I had the files backup and reformatted the HDD instead of paying the $130 for best buy. Even after the reformat i still cannot boot into safe mode. Nothing is found by my kaspersky, webroot, or adaware software. I can boot into safe mode by turning the power key off. I also did the sfc but it said "98% verified with corrupt files found" but when i went to the log it said that all the files were verified and no files were repaired. I'm really just worried that the problem is still there even after using the recovery disk. I'm not really sure where to go from this point.
My computer is a Toshiba Qosmio with vista ultimate
Thanks,
