Welcome to Daniweb! 
I am nothing special; of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts, and I’ve led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I’ve loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough. -The Notebook
The virus may be the source of your trouble. It has probably infected your hard-drive, so get someone professional to deal with it, or try yourself to delete it, it may be too late to save it though........

hey welcome to daniweb. Well to delete the Virus you have to first boot in. If your not able to do that then its better if your format your disk.
And some one please move this thread to the Tech Talk forum before everybody starts posting queries here.
