hi, I recently got a nasty virus and after cleansing it, nearly all of my needed services do not run, like Remote access manager and such. I realized that all of these were in the system 32 folder so i went there to investigate and I could not find it. It seems to be hidden, and i don't mean with folder options. I can access it through the address bar and everything is in the folder like before. Can someone pls help. thanks!
 
i was able to unhide my system folder by changing attrib in command prompt. but now it acts as if there is no hardware installed. even device manager shows nothing. has anyone had this problem?

Is there a way to hide/unhide hardware like you can folders with the attributes? It was the attributes that caused my system32 folder to be "lost", perhaps it is the same with the hardware.
