Re: atmclk.exe please HELP

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

OK dudes..here is the last of it:
I borrowed a convereter wallet, that converts the laptop Hard disk into
USB connect.
then I took my hard out from the infected laptop, put it inside that
wallet, then connected it as an external drive to my desktop.

From there, I burned the important files on a CD, then I formatted the
hard drive twice.

Then I installed it bck into the laptop, and installed WinXp again.

Now running well, but slow to boot and close...also slow to surf the
net....

Thanks 4 all of U guys, u were such good help

God bless

well guys, thanks 4 Ur suggestions.
I did try 2 set boot from CD, but it did not work...the computer
behaves as if there is no CD drive.
Then I also tried msconfig, still did not work coz the atmclk.exe does
not show itself, but keeps running.

I will anyhow, take the hard drive out, connect it as a second drive
into a healthy, well protected computer, try 2 kill the virus there..

shall try it tomorrow and keep U updated....

ps: before you reinstall the windows as suggested, got into startup > run >
msconfig. disable "all" your startups. it is likely that you malicious exe
file has set itself up to launch. in fact, you should do a reboot after
disabling the startups to see if you have more control over windows. if not
and you are still in a bind, then i would proceed with the suggestins in the
prior msg...

I was hit by this atmclk.exe, plz guys help me, but read carefully b4 U
post your tips. I cannot get online scan bcoz it does not let IE work.
I also cannot run any outside cleaning software like from floppy or CD

is go into sfate mode with command prompt. plz can U tell me how to
disable it from there. I am really in a mess.
