Anyway, here's my next fix for you:
Step 1
IMPORTANT:
You will need a flash drive with a size of 512 Mb or bigger. Make sure that you do not leave anything important on the flash drive, as all data on it will be deleted during the following steps.
- Download OTLPEStd.exe from the following link and save it to your Desktop: mirror1.
- Download eeepcfr.zip from the following link and save it to your Desktop: the mirror
- Finally, if you do not have a file archiver like 7-zip or Winrar installed, please download 7-zip from the following link and install it: the mirror
- Download OTLPEStd.exe from the following link and save it to your Desktop: mirror1.
- Once you have 7-zip install, decompress OTLPEStd.exe by rightclicking on the folder and choosing the options shown in the picture below.
- Open the folder OTLPEStd which will be created in the same location as OTLPEStd.exe and right-click OTLPE_New_Std.iso. Select 7-Zip and from the submenu select Extract files... and extract the content onto your Desktop in a OTLPE folder (you'll have to create this new folder):
- Please also decompress eeepcfr to your systemroot (usually C:\).
- Empty the flash drive you want to install OTLPE on.
- Go to C:\eeecpfr and double-click usb_prep8.cmd to launch it.
- Press any key when asked to in the black window that opens.
- As indicated in the image, make sure you have selected the correct flash drive, before proceeding.
For Drive Label: type in OTLPE.
Under Source Path to built BartPE/WinPE Files click ... and select the folder OTLPE that you created on your Desktop.
Finally check Enable File Copy.
- Click on Start, accept the disclaimers and wait for the program to finish.
Step 2
Booting from the USB flash drive
The next thing that you must do is to configure your PC to allow you to boot from the flash drive. This is all done through the computer's BIOS Setup. I can't give you specific instructions for this part, because every computer is different. I can give you a few pointers though.
You can access your computer's BIOS by pressing a specific key immediately after you turn the PC on. The key varies, but it is usually either [F1], [F2], or [Delete]. If it's not any of the mentioned keys, please pay attention to what the first screen(s) tell(s) you when you first turn on your computer and see if any specific button is mentioned.
Once you are in the BIOS Setup, find the section on boot device priority. Normally, a USB flash drive (which is usually listed as USB-HDD, but may be listed as a removable/external device) will have a very low boot priority. If the USB flash drive's boot priority is lower than the hard disk (often listed as HDD), you must rearrange the boot device priority so that the flash drive has a higher priority than the hard drive. Follow the keyboard instructions on the BIOS screen to figure out how.
When done, find the way to save before/while exiting the BIOS Setup screen. Once again, follow the instructions on the screen.
If you need help in this area, please let me know what kind of BIOS Setup (by mentioning to me any specific name(s) that you see on the screen pertaining to the BIOS for your system) you have so I can guide you with better details.
Step 3
- You should now be able to boot from the USB/flash drive. So let it do its thing. Note that it'll take a while to load into the Reatogo environment (which is what we want to access).
- Your system should eventually display a Reatogo desktop (similar to Windows XP).
- Double-click on the MBRFix icon.
- In the black box that appears, type in the following (pressing Enter after you do so):
MbrFix /drive 0 fixmbr - Confirm with Y and press Enter again.
- Close the window and shut down your computer.
- Pull out the USB/flash drive and boot into the normal Windows.
Step 4
Run MBRCheck again.
If no infection is found, it will produce a report on the desktop. Post that report in your next reply.
If an infection is found, you will be presented with the following dialog:
Enter 'Y' and hit ENTER for more options, or 'N' to exit:
Type N and press Enter. A newer report will be produced on the desktop. Post that report in your next reply.
