Hi there folks, am having some problems with my computer which is a hewlett packard. its probably around 3 years old, cant remember sorry.
a while ago i contracted the sasser worm, d/l the tool to get rid of the dern thing and assumed that all was ok....yes im pretty dumb....i have had people tell me to do a system recovery, that it would be safe it would get the CRAP that i had in the computer off and leave it a shell, therefore easier to work with.
i AM the worlds greatest procrastinator and i finally got around to it today. i guess i procrastinated like i did because we have a second comp and i just couldnt be bothered...ANYWAYS....i did a full system recovery and the computer wont go past the thank you screen at the end of registration etc. i have left it because it looks like the system is wanting to work as the wee light is flickering off and on like its busy but it just wont budge past this screen. i did try to start in safe mode, but the message i got was that the system wasnt complete (or something to that effect) and it restarted again only to take me back to the thank you screen...hmmm its got me dumbfounded anyways!
if anyone can help, i would be more than grateful, many thanks!
