I took the machine back to the customers home because they had another PC I was working on as well which recovered fine. I plugged in their mouse and keyboard which were Logitech and not the original keyboard and mouse and what do you know, they worked. It took a second and it behold they functioned. The odds weren't in my favor and I had almose the exact same setup, but it just didn't like my shop I guess. New problem lol....I boot the machine, log into the users profile, and the desktop will load with error after error including explorer which closes out and I have nothing but a desktop image. After alt-ctrl-del a couple of times I can bring up the task manager, only after it errors out numerous times. I tried safe mode and the other profiles including Admin have the same issue. Created new profile to check that out and the new profile is semi usable in safe mode. I went into the device manager and there was nothing listed there. I mean nothing, just an empty box. I understand from the EU that it has a virus of some type on it, but have you ever heard of such a f.u.b.a.r PC? Let me know if you have any ideas on how to get Malwarebytes' on it or another program to do a cleaning without a full reformat unless you think it is too far gone.
