computer wont start after 2 antiviruses

i thought i would try kaspersky so i disabled avast and installed kasp at the same time which i shouldn't of done since i needed to install kasp after totally disabling avast so now my cmputer won't start and im wondering how can i fix this from the cmd line? because it seems i cant fix it any other way, i already tried safe mode it didnt work and i tried the vista recover cd and that didnt work either

 

Hiya hello2007...

Didnt you report a similar issue over on the Comodo forums? I thought this had been fixed. Are you saying now that with the installation of Kas, the same thing has happened again?

Cheers

 

its not the same issue but its very similar. These dam internet security packages aren't for me. I wiped out the boot loader and re-created it from the cmd line but it isn't working like how it solved the comodo problem. im shocked that this is happening again somewhat. Nothing works so it must be solved from the cmd line i need a script to delete kasp from the cmd line. I just dont know the actual file name to look up

 

Safe-mode or Use last settings that worked? None of these fix your issue?
System restore can also be launched by using DVD in case if you're using Windows Vista (disc and installed one HAVE to be the same version with same service packs), otherwise it will not work.

 

Scroll down to Last Line Solution... here.

HTH

Not to mention the benefits of adopting a good rollback or imaging solution for disaster recovery.

 

situations like this is why i love my Rollback Rx

 

Absolutely.

I'd like to know if the OP got it sorted...

thanks but i already saw that page it doesnt work, it said something like cant find specified location or something

 

What page? If you are talking about the link philby posted a few posts back:

http://hubpages.com/hub/How-to-uninstall-or-remove-Kaspersky-totally

...it seems to be working fine here.

You could always just format and install the operating system again, although I'm just taking a wild guess here that your backups may not be up to date and you will lose everything?

 

Always have cleaned build image of your system, so next time when you try these programs you can recover from a disaster like BitDefender Total Internet Security. MS Beta AV package gave me issues I just removed it but you can't do that in Safe mode. Comodo AV removed but still likes to open a browser. Rising products leave a lot of crappy files behind.

 

maybe i didnt type it right heres what i did i simply typed everything i saw in the blackbox minus the 64 bit since i have the same prgram of kasp installed. i think maybe i need to type something to get into documents and settings instead of just typing documents and settings myself from the start. Do you know how i can get into documents and setings

 

Ditto.

 

I agree with you.I had a similar problem once and i had to remove the package, i guess all security solutions are like this.

 

Are you familiar with working with command prompts? You have to change directories in a serial/logical fashion to navigate to the folder required.

Not being a Kaspersky user, I'm unsure if the remover being pointed to in that prompt default-downloads with Kaspersky, or is arrived at following a download of the removal tool. If the latter, of course that command prompt will not work; you won't have the removal tool on the computer.

Tell the truth, I'm not very learned at all with these prompts, nor when they can or can't be used. But maybe that will give you a bit of an idea.

 

thanks for the help so far but if anyone can tell me how to access the documents settings area through cmd line that would be even better

 

Type:

explorer C:\documents and settings for XP
explorer C:\documents for Vista

In Vista there is no Documents & Settings (there is a hidden one for backwards compatibility) so the command would be:

c:\Users\[user]

 

i dont know why but it isnt working

 

When you say it isn't working, what exactly did you type in and what exactly happened?

philby

 

explorer C:\documents for Vista

i also did c: and then the script too after c: then hitting enter




c:\Users\[user]

same with this and i used my actual account name on the third categorie and i did it exactly like that above too just to make sure and nothing worked

it just said it cant be found/incorrect name

 

OK, my cmd current directory is set to C:\users\name and all I have to do is type:

explorer documents

...and the documents folder opens in explorer.

If this isn't working for you, then I'm at a loss...

Fear not, however, as someone will know another way...

PS If you need to change the current directory, type CD then, after a space, the target.

EG, to set to C:\program files, type:

CD C:\program files

 

is it possible to access the vista side program registry's through ubuntu? because im using ubuntu on my corrupt vista computer and i can access alot of things from vista from my ubuntu cd

 

Have you thought about trying the UBCD4Win ? There are Vista compatible registry tools on that.
