Computer Virus?

Have you changed your bios or post to boot from disc?

When you turn it on try some of the F keys, usually F2 F8 F10 or F12 ,

Just keep tapping them while the machine is starting up, before it gets to boot.

Is BIOS safe mode, steps? If so, I have tried this several times (Pressing F8 on start up) but it makes not a jot of difference. the issues I am seeing the same issues in safemode as I do on the normal side of it. HELLLLLLP

No, you are still booting into your HDD, try F2 or F10 then, make sure you have the disc in the drive before you power on your PC,

Some computers wont allow you to open the disc drive during boot,

If you get the right F key it will give you options of what drive to boot first, chose CD/DVD

You may need to change the boot order in the bios to put the cd/dvd first

F10 opens BIOS on my HP laptop, Ive just checked,

Its sometimes the DEL key, depends on the PC, Dells like F12 also

I had look at the OP AD3, its an HP he is using,

My Dell is F8 boot and F12 bios, or the other way round maybe, cant remember just now,

I have them labelled on them, :|

As said above, need to change the boot order in the Bios from 1st Boot HDD to CD ROM
