Will your computer start in safe mode.
Restart your computer.
When the machine first starts again it will generally list some equipment that is installed in your machine,
amount of memory, hard drives installed etc (BOOT SCREEEN).
At this point you should gently tap the F8 key repeatedly until you are presented with a Options menu.
Select the option for Safe Mode using the arrow keys.
Then press enter on your keyboard to boot into Safe Mode.
Tell me what happens.

I think your best bet is to do a repair install.
Microsoft provides information on how to do this in the following article:
http://support.micro...kb;en-us;315341
Let me know how it goes.

I'm not sure how the computer loads drivers for the external DVD if windows won't start.
I'm thinking we're getting in over my knowledge. I suggest that you post in the Windows forum and seek guidance from the Tech Team. I suspect they will know the proper hoops to jump through.

Glad to hear things are working.
A happen to like Avast.
Here are some recommendations.
The following is my standard advice for the future. Use what you can and pat yourself on the back for what you're already doing.
Please take time to read Preventing Malware - Tools and Practices for Safe Computing. Very important information for your consideration is contained therein.
I would also suggest you read this:
So how did I get infected in the first place?
by Tony Klein
Also: "How to prevent malware"
by miekiemoes
Please respond back that you understand the above and let me know if you have any questions. Otherwise, this thread will be closed Resolved.
