Dell Demension E521

Hello,
Ok, here is the problem, I downloaded a file on my comp. When it finished I got a crap load of warning pop ups. I shut down the comp, restarted it when I did it would not go to my OS, I have the recovery disk but it wont pick it up after it goes thru the boot screen when started. I can access my F12 and F2 buttons but that is it. I was told it was a virus, can someone help me please. I have Windows Vista 32 Bit.

Well now it won't even come on. Its giving me a steady Amber light I can hear the fan running and the hard drive when it first comes on but nothing after that..
