I ended up with a bad virus, that caused my computer to restart before Windows could load. My options in f8 did not work. I tried everything. The info I did find, did not help, because I could not get into my computer. I ended up finding info about Kaspersky antivirus bootable disk. I figured this would not work either, but I was wrong. It took 17 hours to run, but it found the viruses. I was then able to load Windows and install my Anti-Virus software back on my computer and run it. I found 3 more viruses so far. The Kaspersky disk said that it was out of date, or it probably would have found them too. I would recommend this disk to anyone.

@ GT NUPE
For any Linux based rescue cd, make sure that you do not go through a KVM. Cheap KVMs will not pass the VESA BIOS Extensions (VBE) information from the monitor to the video card and therefore the Linux environment can not auto configure the H sync or V sync for the monitor. The end result is a blank screen.

Eric Says

28. Mar, 2009

Sigh. The rescue CD is trying to use a video screen resolution that the monitor doesn’t support, so I get a blank screen and a message from the monitor that the video mode isn’t supported.

I had to go and look up the keyboard shortcuts to change the X11 resolution - I don’t know whether your config supports it or not, but that’s my only hope to use this thing right now.

There must be something wrong with the NTFS drivers on this rescue CD. I was able to run it, and it seemed to be somewhat reasonable. But when it shut down, it seemed to get hung on the way down. It was busy as can be doing something. As it turns out, it was busily deleting files - there was hardly anything left when it got done, as a matter of fact.

Fortunately I had made a full backup before I started cleaning this disk, so I am now in the process of restoring. Which of course means that I will have to re-run a number of tools and all that.

But I will *NEVER* use this rescue CD for anything again.

Tried Kapersky last night on a laptop I was fixing. Got IO type errors while loading, so I gave up and used Avira rescue CD. It’s Linux based and has Update functionality as well. It worked great. You can look for the download here: http://www.free-av.com/en/tools/12/avira_antivir_rescue_system.html

It’s free too, so happy virus hunting!

Got a virus on one of the PCs. It would bootup and load windows, but not load explorer. Repaired windows installation using the XP installation disk, took about 1.5 hors to repair, but at least it boots up and load explorer, msconfig and regedit. Still unable to load antivirus, not surf the web. Whenever we I start windows explorer, the OS tries to install adobe acrobat 7. Isuspects it not really acrobat 7. PC had Mcafee Internet security installed, with a current subscription.

Called Mcafee tech support and instead of helping me resolve this issue, they were too busy trying to flog their 129.00 AUD virus removal service. I tried to explain there was little or no networking for them to remotely log into this PC, but to no avail. Had strong words with them and hung up. Guess which anti virus provider will not be receiving any repeat business from myself or any of the many sites that have installed mcAfee on my recommendation.

I will give Kaspersky rescue disk a go and see if it’s any good.

It looks pretty much like DOS, but it is many many times better. From the editorial perspective I recognize that many end users might not really care about the differences between DOS and Linux. But without going into detail of how linux can look for viruses in ADSs and DOS cannot, well, let us just say that for the average techie it hurts to read a reference to DOS.
