Have you tried safe mode to get rid of malware? Or this one?

Just boot it up and it will do the job.

Try this.Good Luck!!!

 

yup i have tried when i can still access windows explorer (now i'm trying the link you gave me) thanks!!!

I have tried it many times but still won't work

my problem now is I can't get into the windows explorer can't log in to windows. I can only access in the recovery from the windows cd..

 

Then do a full XP repair.While a repair install is designed to keep all of your data and programs intact, I highly advise that you backup everything you can before undertaking a repair installation. If something were to go wrong during the reinstall, it's possible that data loss could occur. Better to be safe than sorry!

Hi!

What kind of PC is it? Dell? HP?

 

When you do repair XP install, what errors do you get?

 

I only build the specs (not branded)

I do the repair last July 3, I'm having a malware problem before I repair, I was told by TimW to reapir it cause I'm having some trouble at my Process.dll (.Net Framework) to run the MGtools.
The first error that i have encounter in repairing is having the ntldr and ntdetect.com I have already found some solution (fixntldr) but still can't copy it to my drive using recovery console. everytime I try to copy ntldr to C:\ it says access is denied.

The second error is about the
SXS.DLL:Syntax error in the manifest or policy file "D:\I386\asms\2 default\defaultman" on line 6
Installation failed:\I386\asms. Error Message. The manifaest file contains one or more syntax errors.
I have fix this problem
now i'm stock with this Fatal error : The system cannot find message text for message number 0xfffffdf0 in the message file for Syssetup.dll
I can only use recovery console and when stop at the fatal error I press shift+F10 you can get to C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe

I think the virus has been manipulating my access because my administrator access is not even there...

hope to here from you guys thanks....

 

HI!! is this the end for me?? can I still retireive my files or reformat my OS

THANKS!!!

 

You need a live Windows disk made with a working Windows.

If that's not an option, google ntfs file manager for dos. Make a boot disk. You still need a 2nd partition or harddisk for storing your files.
