Then i saw a file on my desktop i nevr saw before called axel.dav. did not open it. Them i tried to do system recovery and it popped up in a window that said windows could not open it. so i googled it on another computer. and lo and behold i found the problem.

Download OTL from
http://www.geekstogo...timers-list-it/
and Save it to your desktop.

Run OTL (Vista or Win 7 => right click and Run As Administrator)

select the All option in the Extra Registry group then Run Scan.

You should get two logs. Please copy and paste both of them.

Download aswMBR.exe ( 511KB ) to your desktop.

Double click the aswMBR.exe to run it

Click the "Scan" button to start scan

On completion of the scan (Note if the Fix button is enabled and tell me) click save log, save it to your desktop and post in your next reply

Please do not attach files. It makes them too hard to read. Just open the log, select All (Ctrl + a) then copy (Ctrl + c) and paste (Ctrl + v) it into a reply.

If aswMBR had the FIX button enabled (not the FixMBR button) then after you post the log run it again and hit the Fix button.

Copy the text between the lines of stars by highlighting and Ctrl + c
