    Exclamation Need help fixing auto logoff(virus?) or uninstalling Windows 7

    Hi,
    Last night I downloaded a file which contained a virus(the source told me it was a false positive), that time it was all good. This morning I went on the computer and from multi boot I choose Windows 7(other was Vista) and when it prompted me to account screen I chose my account and logged in. Suddenly everything shutted down on start up and logged off and went back to the account selection screen. It is happening everytime Im logging on to Windows 7.
    I ran a scan in Microsoft Security Essentials and there was no virus/malware found.
    So, I want to run Windows 7 and fix this problem else I want to delete Windows 7 and install a new one with the CD I was given by Acer for Windows 7.

    Thanks,
    Hamza.

    First make sure that you have Windows 7 bootable CD that you got with Acer. Because nowadays, they have stopped providing the Windows 7 (bootable CD to avoid piracy). The CD you get is just recovery CD that can be used only for specific model. So before deleting the operating system, make sure that you are having the proper CD. And also I would like to comment that problem that you are facing can be reason for system files corruption. So also try to repair the operating system before doing the formatting.
