Hi folks!

I need help with my desktop, I can't seem to boot it up, regardless of what I do, I suspect I might have contracted a virus. Can someone tell me what component I need to change, short of buying a new system, to overcome this problem? and does this mean I've lost all my data?....someone?.....anyone?...please help!

well i figured that if he thinks it is a virus and the computer wont boot up then the best option would be to reinstall windows, if thats a no go then it would likely be a hardware problem.

can you see anything on the screen?

I'm afraid we need a little more information on your setup.
