I downloaded a virus and so I tryed to restore my dell laptop, but when I did it, it said restore unsucessful and now everytime i try to turn on my laptop it say press control alt delete to restart, then it just takes me to the same screen, it wont start up...any suggestions?
usually you can buy recovery discs from Dell. You could download a disc image of windows (assuming you use windows) You used to get a pack of discs with your computer but they switched to storing all that directly on the harddrive as a recovery partition. Does anything show up before it says control alt del? Normally it will load up with a splash screen that says Dell on it. Plus press f something to view setup or something along those lines. Does your computer do anything like that? What operating system is on it?
That rules out the recovery partition. All I was trying to get you to do was either repair windows or you may even have to reinstall windows.
