I could use some help. My comp went haywire the other day and would only work in 16 colours and min resolution. It would let me change it in the display menu but when it rebooted would always be 16 colours etc.
Anyway, I ran Norton Antivirus and it found and quarantined a virus of unknown name, and about half a second later crashed. Every time I start up Norton now, it crashes within 3 seconds or so. There is no error message - it just closes.
So I fiddled around, and discovered my system.ini was corrupted. I replaced it with a backup and re-downloaded drivers and stuff, and eventually I am back, more or less, to normal.
Except:
1. Nortan not working now is a little worrying. Do you think this could be an effect of the virus? I have tried reinstalling it twice.
2. I have a program csc.exe running on startup. I can't seem to get rid of it. I have no idea what it does, but if I delete it or move it, it is back on the next reboot. Does anyone know what this is?
Any help would be appreciated.
