Yay for backups! Really, do them.

where do I store stuff that wouldn't transfer over the virus?

Would System Restore work?
And... how did you get the virus in the first place?

THe last system restore point is only like a week ago for some reason which isn't far enough back.
I'm not entirely sure. By which I mean I have no loving idea.

How I do it is I backup an image of my computer every 3-4 weeks. If you keep at least two copies and alternate between the two you can restore to an older point, hopefully before a virus.

forget YEAH! Something somebody told me to do has worked I just ran another mbr check and it's working fine.

THanks for the help guys, locking.

Alright nevermind, I just restarted the computer and it told me to insert the windows 7 install disk and restart. I did so and chose repair and it's all working good. Locking again.
