Answer 2

There's no such thing as a root virus, only a root kit which installs itself in your O/s. This sounds like a hardware fault not a root kit or virus. Assuming you have recently changed your video card I would try the old one as it's possible the new one has blown. It can happen even with a brand new card. Hope this helps.

Answer 3

upload/get rid of courses > get rid of it from there. Or, if that fails, obtain SYMNRT.EXE from the Norton internet web site, that's largely a Norton eliminating device written by utilising Norton/Symantec because they recognize their uninstall recurring is a pile of steaming turd. do not basically delete the folders or you'll finally end up with quite some startup mistakes messages whenever you change your workstation on!
