Hi again friends,

 

Well if you recall a computer with a virus that I could not boot to the dvd rom to use my imaging software and i could not get into the recovery partition and took mnay tries to get to safe mode.  Today I tried again, ran Kapersky root kit removal--it found nothing, ran malware bytes it found 500ish things which I quaranteed (normally that program has not helped me regain control  with prior re-do's of machine).  Rebooted, still could not get to boot to cd ; however I was able to get into the recovery partition.  Did a destructive recovery of the c drive (this  only format the c: and not the d: partition) got everything back to the way the computer was in 2006,  BUT still could not boot to Rom. Then added the printer, 2 profiles,  xpsp3, chrome, and avast--went to reboot and it kept cyclycing between the booting screen and then seeing xp splash screen.

Started over AGAIN this time only did avast, printer, firefox.  I did not reboot.hoping it will be okay enough for him to surf web.  I also was unable to connect with IE 6 to get the updates although the browser is functioning.

Any ideas what is wrong--now the dvd rom does not only not see the Hiren disk , but the disk i put malware bytes and mcafree rootkit removal.
