Several weeks ago, my PC got a virus and I can't run anything on it. I brought the PC up in Safe mode, but all I got was a blank screen w/ the words "Safe Mode" in all four corners and that was it. I tried to run Norton 360 on it...will not take it. Basically, the OS will not talk to any external drives. I still can get out to the net, but will not run any program if I have to run an anti-virus program off a site because I have to download it first. While the PC is running, I keep on deleting the processes that's being a CPU hog just to keep the thing alive. Sometimes, the PC will lockup, other times, I accidentally delete a process that the PC needs and it reboots itself.
Not all is bad...gave me an excuse to go out and buy a brand new laptop - but I'd like to save my desktop. I still have info that I didn't back up (shame on me) that I'd like to get. Anyone have any ideas???
