Resolved Fixing another PC

[circusboy01]

L have a Compaq Computer that got so messed up. I had to buy this one. In a way I'm kind of glad it Crashed. Because I really like this Lenovo. Especially since it's running so good .
I'd like to get the Compag running again. I refuse to believe it's down for good
I had installed Ubuntu. wasn't using it. Because my USB stick wasn't strong enough.
Here's where it's mostly guesswork on my part.I used a Windows program.It was already installed on the computer It was supposed get rid of old links and other stuff. I don't know for sure. But, I think it thought the Ubuntu was something that shouldn't be there. Because It crashed while the program was still running.
Somehow all I could get on screen was Windows Media. I could not go to Malwarebytes Superantispyware,HijackThis or anything like that.
I would like to try to fix it by Loading all I would need on a USb Drives, and plug them into the Compaq, and see if I could fix it. I need your help. I need to know which things to put on the USB. Which ones should be used first. Just anything I would need to know to get the PC up and running again. I'm guessing the first thing I would do would load HyJack This On to a USB and download it on to the compaq.
/Thanks in advance for the help I will recieve.
Last quick question. While I'm fixing the problems. The Compaq doesn't need to be Online. Right? Ray

I don't understand what you mean by what's the source of all these computers. I have two The Lenovo that has already been fixed.( thinks again Broni ), and the compaq which I would like to get fixed. Is there a reason you worded it, like I have multi computers? I will be loading my Virus and Malware protection,from my working PC Lenovo and downloading them into my Compaq. So I will need to know how I can tell when their finished loading, and how I can tell if the programs have been successfully
loaded into the Compaq.. Can I use just one USB Drive? By loading one program into the USB Downloading it into the PC. uninstalling from the USB and loading another program, and so on?
I know I have a lot of questions,and I might have more.I just wanted to get them asked now. Instead of having then slow down progress once we get started. Ray. ,

Ran my first Boot time scan on my Lenovo.

Please believe me.I am not just going around Helter Scalter Asking for help on one machine, then asking for help on another. Before the first one is fixed. I know better.
But, like I said above I ran a boot time scan on my Lenovo.
It found 5 problems. Data Error 42125 E zip archive is corrupted
bin. Error. 42145 installer archive is corrupted ( 3 times )
.exe Error 42126 RAR archive is corrupted.
Yet when the scan is over it says 0 problems. ( problems is a paraphrase for a word I can't remember.)
As you know I was planning on using this PC (the Lenovo) to load Anti Malware/ Anti virus into USB Drives and use them to try to fix my Compaq.
After seeing what the Lenovo Boot scan found. Can I still go ahead And use Lenovo to try to fix the Compaq? Or do I need to fix the problems the Boot scan found on Lenovo first. Thanks Ray

[Bobbye]

Please download GMER: Go to this site http://www.gmer.net/files.php and click on Download EXE. Save the file to your desktop
Two other links for the download should you need one:

The 3 entries above in bold blue are hyperlinks. 'Main Mirror' has an embedded link. You don't go search for 'Man Mirror.' Clicking on any one of them should bring up the download. You don't need to do a search for the download..

Notepad opened up blank.Clicked scan. it scanned for a long time. Don't know how to save scan to Desktop. So I guess you'll just have to settle for results.

Just like with Broni Not sure if I got both logs. But i've got to say I'm proud of the progress I've made. Compared to the progress I made when Broni,was helping me.

I'm not going to be able to find and send that other log for you. I could never find it for Broni either. But you know what this computer is working pretty good. Despite what the Boot Scan said. Of cource I wanted to fix the Boot scan problems. Mostly because I knew I was going to load my Malware protection on to a flashdrive,and try to use it to repair my other computer. The Compaq.. It turns out that just a flashdrive full of anti virus and anti malware isn't going to fix the Compaq. I wont bother you with details but The first restore disk only goes to !8% complete. Then says it can't fix it . Lots more details but again, I'm not going to bother you with them Ray.

 

[Bobbye]

We never really got started here. Curious you can't find the other DDS log> It's created at the same time and the one you left.

Since it appears that these issues on the computer cannot be resolved, I'm going to close the thread.

You can remove all of the tools we used and the files and folders they created

• Download OTCleanIt by OldTimer and save it to your Desktop.
• Double click OTCleanIt.exe.
• Click the CleanUp! button.
• Select Yes when the "Begin cleanup Process?" prompt appears.
• If you are prompted to Reboot during the cleanup, select Yes.
• The tool will delete itself once it finishes.

-----
Note: If you receive a warning from your firewall or other security programs regarding OTC attempting to contact the internet, please allow it to do so.

Note: If any tool, file or folder (belonging to the program we have used) hasn't been deleted, please delete it manually.
------------------------------------------

• You should now set a new Restore Point and remove the old restore points to prevent infection from any previous Restore Points.
• Go to Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools
• Click "System Restore".
• Choose "Create a Restore Point" on the first screen then click "Next".
• Give the Restore Point a name> click "Create".
  
• Go back and follow the path to > System Tools.
  [*]Choose Disc Cleanup
  [*]Click "OK" to select the partition or drive you want.
  [*]Click the "More Options" Tab.
  [*]Click "Clean Up" in the System Restore section to remove all previous Restore Points except the newly created one.
