hi, i recently got this dreaded virus, now i am not a hacker. i know how to use computers, that is all. However, this won't let me start up my laptop (obviously im on a different computer now), it wont even let me get to the safe mode. Whenever i turn it on it goes to the black screen that lets me choose safe mode, last known good configuration, start normally, etc. I have tried all three of these and the blue screen comes up. the question i have is that since i dont have backups of the programs on my computer, is there anyway to fix this without reformatting it? i would hate to lose all the songs i have downloaded.
