These directions r for W7. modify for XP or Vista RE running a program.

1. Boot to safe mode with networking (hit F8 repeatedly while booting till safe mode menu appears) - if that option isn't available u have a real problem. Time for clean install.

2. Delete everything in all ur temp folders and recycle bin - u can dnld and run ATFCLEANER - it makes life easier.

3. Go to START, type MSCONFIG and set it for diagnostic mode startup.

4. Open a browser - if it does not connect try unchecking the proxy setting under tools - internet options - connections - advanced = if u can't u will have to dnld MBAM someplace else and load to computer and install. -- also dnload VipreRescue (VR) - google to find dnld site.

5. Run both MBAM and VR in deep scan mode. VR defaults to that (VR must finish otherwise nothing will be removed/fixed)

6. Go to START, enter CMD, rt clk CMD.EXE in list and clk Run as administrator. Type SFC /SCANNOW. Let finish.

7. Reboot and pray.

8. If it doesn't boot it is time for a clean install. The virus hosed a system file and the scan could not clean it and deleted it and SFC could not fix it. - end of story.

9. If it boots ok, go back to msconfig and recheck everything in services and startup that does not look strange-like random lettered files. U can just chk NORMAL startup, but if u chk them all and get an error about a file that could not be run, it is because the file was a virus and was deleted.

10. Save these instructions - u will need it again.

Hello. My name is Sanjay Patel, and I currently hold an honorary Master's degree in the field of Computer Science. I am aware of, and have personal knowledge related to your question. There are computer maintenance businesses which are probably in your area, however they come at the cost of hiring a professional to enter your home. There may also be some local destinations where you can drop off your computer and wait to have a technician look at it. These options can often be costly, and pretty inconvenient. The answer to this question can probably be found doing a little extra research on Google.

A well-running computer can be a hard thing to maintain. From my experience, there is but only One software which is reputable- and consistently reliable for healing sick, slow computers.

The user named "Rosita" is a liar. This person is NOT a Microsoft developer, and you most definitely do NOT want to download and install pc health boost - it is malware.

To the person named "Rosita", or whatever your real name is... you are a scumbag criminal. You are deliberately spamming your own malicious software under the guise of helping people out. You are the lowest of the low.
