Best advice already given. Format & start again.
How many HDD's are there in the computer? Or was a single drive set up with a document partition?
Save what you can before formatting. Use a caddy if needed.Canker

I have had simular problems recently, all down to the wonderful Rootkits.
Id suggest using:
Hiren's BootCD 14.1 - All in one Bootable CD ? www.hiren.info
Hirens boot cd, goto windows, run gmer look for anything in red and run some of the other av's. Im not sure what else is on the disk from memory, but this is the one CD, I always keep to handComment
