Help - System Won't Boot

[mallik]

I was having a problem with a system that was running very slow and was clearly infected. I took the hard drive out and installed it as a secondary drive in another system so I could scan it.

I ran NOD32 and it found a bunch of infections. Not sure what they were exactly but they were all cleaned. I put the hard drive back in the original system but now I get a blue screen 0x0000007 right at boot up.

I looked it up and it seems that it could be because the drive configuration was changed (I'm pretty sure I put it back how it was as I just disconnected the cables and connected the same ones back when I re-installed it) or virus (which were said to be cleaned).

Is there anything else it could be? What can I do to fix this?

Have you tried safe mode also?

You might also be able to hook hdd back up to other computer, backup all files that are important, format, and reinstall windows.

Yeah, I tried safe mode but the same thing happens.

I would like to use the format option as an absolute last resort because it's not my computer.

maybe you could try to "repair" the windows installation by inserting the windows cd, and go into the repair option.

Boot from cd and run chkdsk on drive or run it as secondary drive.
