I cannot defeat this monster. I have tried checking the registry fixes and everything is set correctly. Passes Hardware tests. FixBoot, MBR, CHK DSK to no avail. Its is a black screen, white cursor prior to log in. CTRL+ALT+DEL does nothing. Jamming on the shift key pulls up the "Do you want to Enable Sticky Keys Window", but I can't select anything other than Yes/No. I've ran Virus scans and removed some js.trojan files but nothing that looked too severe. I get the same result from all safe mode versions, last known good config and low res mode. System restore using the OS disk does not work, fails everytime. SFC /Scannow cannot run. I am plum out of ideas to fix this machine and am 20 pages deep into 3 different google searches trying to find an answer. Someone be my hero?
