This should force sfc to run.

To enter System Recovery Options from the Advanced Boot Options:
  • Restart the computer.
  • As soon as the BIOS is loaded begin tapping the F8 key until Advanced Boot Options appears.
  • Click on Repair your computer menu item.
  • Select US as the keyboard language settings, and then click Next.

  • Select your user account and click Next.

Startup Repair
System Restore
Windows Complete PC Restore
Windows Memory Diagnostic Tool
Command Prompt


Select Command Prompt
Type sfc /SCANNOW /OFFBOOTDIR=c:\ /OFFWINDIR=d:\Windows

If sfc runs try to enter normal mode and run RogueKiller. If it is not please tell me what it said in your next reply.

sfc /SCANNOW /OFFBOOTDIR=c:\ /OFFWINDIR=d:\Windows


This is a single line command.

It has single spaces between some pieces as follows:

sfc

/scannow

/OFFBOOTDIR=c:\

/OFFWINDIR=d:\Windows


if that does not run try this:

sfc /SCANNOW /OFFBOOTDIR=d:\ /OFFWINDIR=d:\Windows

On the good computer:

You will need a blank CD or DVD.

  • Go to here and download the 64-bit version of Microsoft System Sweeper to your desktop.
  • Double click and follow the prompts to make a blank CD or DVD.
  • Insert the CD in the ailing computer. Boot up on it by tapping F12 and selecting the CD drive.
  • Have it run a full scan.
  • Once it completes reboot into normal mode and run RogueKiller.
