It will load windows occasionally, takes forever to start up if it does, and most of my applications do not work, cant use internet explorer or anything. I do believe the virus did the damage, but I used mcafee, and had to uninstall it cause it was slowing down my system. Is there anyway that i can reformat the hard drive, or something to get my computer back to its out of box state?
