    Hello all,

    Ill start by saying i have a dell studio 1535.
    4gh Ram 300GB Harddrive.

    I would provide more info but I cant access my laptop.

    So here's my problem,

    I recently did a clean install of windows 7 on my laptop to try and get rid of a nasty trojan that couldnt be removed with sophos or Norton.
    All was going fine until a few days ago when i tried to boot up the laptop and nothing. Everytime i tried to boot it up I would just get a black screen. It would turn on and I get messages such as "windows is loading files"and so on but after that just black.

    Ive tried booting to safe mode, booting from a windows 7 disc etc etc etc but the same thing happens everytime (Except when i boot from the windows 7 disc it just freezes at the "Starting windows" screen)

    Ive tried doing "Startup repair" but again i just keep gettin the black screen after i select ita dn the "Windows is loading files..." status bar shows up.

    I ran a system diagnostic last night and got the error message 2000-0142 which i looked up as something to with reinstallins the harddrive (which i cant do becasue i cant access anything)

    Can anyone help me with this as i need to write my thesis and this laptop problem is just making me pull my hair out!

    Thanks for any help

    P.S. If ive posted this in the wrong place im sorry and feel free to move it!
