Wow my computer fails, and so does my luck!!
Just my freaking luck... My account was already hacked. Twice. I got it back completely though... Now guess what happened???
I come home from my grandparent's house and this happens:
My display and stuff changed around (by itself), and looks like a win.XP computer now! I have a win. Vista computer! My sister's boyfriend (Good with computers) came over and took a look at it.

The Windows Display settings is wiped out. The drivers are destroyed. The hard drive is fucking up. There is no Firewall! And the RAM is also fucked up.

BASICALLY: The Windows software is Destroyed and no longer safely operational.
We are taking it to Best Buy for them to fix it.

A virus, too complicated for my virus scanner to prevent/stop, did all of this.
Reformat, you're infected with a RAT or something.

I'll let Best Buy do it for me, it is still under warranty

It still means that I won't have a computer for a while. 3-10 days. Ugh, my activity is going to go waaay down.
Edit: I can always go to my grandparent's house though
If you're ever reformatting because of a virus, don't forget to delete the partition instead of installing over it. Otherwise, depending on the virus, it won't go away...

Edit: Do it yourself, Best Buy is going to install a bunch of useless shit on your computer, most likely.

You lost me at partition /
This virus is reaaallyy bad.
Edit: BestBuy better not.... I can erase the useless stuff though, that's no biggie.

#2: Oh and if I did it myself, It would be worse..... I know nothing bout this type of stuff.
Did you connect this with the lost of your account?

Nah, the loss of my account happened at my grandpa's house because of a random virus :/
Lol, I like XP better than Vista, but a combo of the 2=windows failure.

All I got from that was: I have a bad virus, bad AV, and bad OS..... The rest is too confusing, except for the windows system, ik what that is :P

dakillas2 just take it to someone who knows how to reformat a hard disk... but still you need a copy of windows to install on it after you reformat... cuz reformatting will erase EVERYTHING from the disk
Lol,just sell it on ebay and buy a new one./
You're not a computer guy
they keep failing on you lmfao.
Just maintain the computers and be aware of what you're doing
Possibly your Grandpa's computer can have the same thing happen soon
---Vista to Xp is an upgrade imo
I'm using Windows XP on all of my computers and laptops
my brother uses windows 7 on his home-made desktop though
