    Looks like an issue with Daemon Tools, if you have that loaded, then follow link to the fix.

    Hopefully this will help.

    Boot into safe mode, as you said you can do that, and then delete it manually, then edit the registry to remove any references.

    At least you now know what the problem is.

    Sorry mis-read the post.

    In that case you will have to edit the registry in DOS, it can be done and is quite easy to do.

    However I appreciate that most newer users of PCs never used DOS to any degree so don't have any idea how to use it to it's full potential.

    If you are able, then you could try to look up the commands to use, or you'll either have to take it to someone that knows how to do it.

    The only other option would be to do a total rebuild.

    Talking you through doing it here, would be a nightmare I'd need to be in front of the PC to do it.

    It may be worth investing the time in learning what to do, as having that level of use of DOS will help you out endless times in the future.
