Hi,
I really don't know how this happened, but today my Lenovo X61 Thinkpad which runs a Vista Business SP0 OS was asked to allow a program, which i think put a Trojan and many other viruses on my laptop ( in total 112 threats).
I was planning on re-registering my Norton Anti-Virus soon, and in the meantime Windows Defender was in its place. The threats were detected by Defender and Anti-Virus Trigger, and both were scanning at the same time. Trigger was asking for me to purchase something so that i could remove the threats, while Defender asked me to restart my laptop in order to fix the problems.
I restarted my laptop, and during it re-starting, it froze on the Microsoft Corporation laoding screen. I left it for 5 minutes, and then i forcefully shut it down. Then i tried to turn on the computer, but it came up with the error:
0xc000000f
and it asked me to run my Vista Installation disk in order to repair my laptop, but unfortunately i don't have an Installation disk . However, i do have my brother's Vista Home Premium disk, and i was wondering whether i could use that to repair my computer.
I was reading on some previous forums, and i tried to interrupt the normal start up of my computer by pressing the blue ThinkVantage button. What it said was:
BOOTMGR is missing
press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart
I'm not sure what exactly it will restart, is it the whole computer or something else entirely?
I am really confused on what i should do, and it would be awesome if i could restore my computer to the way it was before this morning, files and all.
Help please?
