Thanks for your input, I really appreciate it. My problems go farther then that. I did try to download ZHPDiag2 but the virus won't let me run it. This virus has TOTAL control of what I can open and do with files, like deleting or moving and what I download. In both case I can't do anything, including deleting or moving files or downloading programs. My anti virus is not working and most of my programs are not working.
I need serious help. Pleeeeeeease...sob.

Greetings to both of you,
Please let me add few lines
@stuckNhole
1) When you switch ON your laptop, keep tapping the "F8" key to get "Windows
Advanced Options"( if boot menu appears, press "Esc" key and keep tapping the
F8 key). Select the option "Safe Mode with Networking" --> Press Enter
2) Download the applications from the below link.
Rkill
https://ccm.net/downloads/security-and-maintenance/4621-malwarebytes-anti-malware/
Run the above applications as administrator by right-clicking on it and selecting the option "Run
as administrator if you are using Windows 7 OS".
Run the rkill which will terminate the malicious processes. Wait for the process to
get completed. Then, install the "Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware", update it and perform "Full Scan".
After the completion of "Full Scan" --> Click on "Show Results" --> Click on "Remove Selected"
--> Restart your PC.
Later run the ZHPDiag2 tool as per the instructions given there and paste the log url here to check if there are some traces left in your PC or not.
Good Luck

Hello and thanks for responding to me.
I have tried that but this insidious virus will not allow it. It won' let me download anything, even in safe mode with networking. I've tried going in through cmd and putting a command in notpad to "neutralize" the administrator rights it has and then going in to download the anti-malware but it wouldn't let that happen. A pop up said it couldn't do it to re-check the spell of the path...etc.
I've been emailing my pictures to myself because it won't let me download them to cd/dvd's or a thumb drive. My vids are probably toast. I tried to down load them with no luck. All I can see to do it trying to clean the hole thing and reinstall. Pardon my tears, I can't help it.
Whoever came up with this virus should be congratulated for his intelligents and excellent abilities...shortly before being shot.
If you anybody has anything else to offer ...please do.
Thanks!

Hello,
Thanks for your help. I appreciate it! I downloaded the Kaspersky Rescue disc but again, it won't let me open it. When I try to run it, a window tries to open for a fraction of a second. It blinks open and closes.
I can't even open the Gateway Recovery Management to start the disc restore process. When I click it nothing happens. When I left click it and hit "open" nothing happens. When I hit "open as administrator", I get a pop up that says "Windows cannot access. Check the spelling of the name. Otherwise, there might be a problem with your network".
When I hit the "Diagnose" button I get another pop up saying: "An error occurred while troubleshopoting. I hit the details button and it says error code:0x800070005. Source: Engine. Context:Restricted.
I can't even commit computer hari kari...how screwed am I?

Hello,
Try this 1
First back your data.
1) If its a desktop PC, then connect your hard drive to another PC, perform virus scanning on your drive and backup your data.
OR
Click on the below link and follow the instructions to backup your data from your PC itself
https://ccm.net/faq/12607-data-backup-when-windows-failed-to-boot
2) Click on the below hyperlink "Stinger" and download the file
Stinger
Copy the file in your pen drive and connect to your PC.
Start your computer from "Safe mode from command prompt".
Here I assume your pendrive drive letter as G: Now enter the below commands
G: --> Press Enter. Now your command prompt changes to G:
stinger --adl --> Press Enter. A Stinger Window will appear. Perform scanning,
Good Luck

Hello Jack4all,
I want to thank you for your attemps to help in my virtual dark despair. But, it was just to much of a mess. I couldn't do the Gateway System Recorver in regular mode. Even though I couldn't do anything else in safe mode, I tried to get into the recovery that way for the heck of it. And it WORKED! So I just wiped it all clean and started over. Saved most of my pics through email but lost those precious vids...sniffle..."(
") Anyway, it's just a relief to have my ole' computer back in my loving arms, working away.
Thanks again. Have a wonderful life my friend.
