Hi' guys,
Could you help me with my computer (windows xp) problem?? I recently bought my computer last month and incidentally a virus has entered ( trojan). I brought it to a computer technician and he said the OS was corrupted by the virus. He fixed the problem and he said that it's already okay. after a week a new problem occur, when I turn on my computer the computer turns on but no graphics to the monitor. And when I tried to restart it, it won't respond as well as when I tried to turn it off it won't respond either instead the light keeps blinking. Help me with this problem guys, please......

Good day!
Thanks for your advice. Before I proceed to the links I just wanted to clarify things up. I just wanted to make sure about your assumption because I have an "AVIRA ANTI-VIRUS and ESET NOD32 ANTI-VIRUS SPYWARE and MALWARE. And my firewall is on. Don't you think it's a hardware problem?? Since, when I turn on the CPU nothing comes out and it takes a couple of minutes, turn it on again, for the windows or the OS to run. By the way my processor is AMD ATHLON DUAL CORE.

They wind up banging heads against each other and make the HDD thrash itself needlessly...

HDD = Hard Disk Drive
Wikipedia.org is a good source for looking up terms you don't know. 95% of the time I can find terms there. When they don't have it, you can use Google.

From your original post, the best guess would be that when you took your computer in to have the virus removed, it was not completely and successfully removed. This is just a guess. At this point you need to follow the instructions you received in reply # 1 and reply # 3 to get assistance with this.
