Detach the hard disk from that infected PC, attach it to a clean PC , then scan the recovery partition in that hard disk. Viruses usually would not infect a recovery partition! Phone the manufacturer of that infected PC, asking for a recovery DVD. If both options failed, I would suggest asking a fan with MSDN membership to download the ISO of that infected PC's Window$ (usually OEM version), and do a clean install using the product key. When all 3 options were not applicable, phone Micro$oft and beg for mercy and solutions. :) -- .~. Might, Courage, Vision.
