This seems to be a persistant problem. Previous computer had the same issue, the laptop has had the same issue with the "AFD" Scamware, but never have I encountered this "White screen" before.

It seems that there are a few programs that may have carried this Malware into the system. some internet games, that children have inadvertadly "Run.exe'd" without realising it, but I cannot be specific on what files.

Any help would be greatly appreciated at this time.
Kind regards

Can you please try to run a scan with Farbar Recovery Scan Tool. You will need a USB (Flash) pendrive.

For x32 (x86) bit systems download Farbar Recovery Scan Tooland save it to a flash drive.
For x64 bit systems download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool x64 and save it to a flash drive.

Plug the flashdrive into the infected PC.

Enter System Recovery Options.

To enter System Recovery Options from the Advanced Boot Options:
  • Restart the computer.
  • As soon as the BIOS is loaded begin tapping the F8 key until Advanced Boot Options appears.
  • Click on Repair your computer menu item.
  • Select US as the keyboard language settings, and then click Next.
  • Select the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.
  • Select your user account and click Next.
On the System Recovery Options menu you will get the following options:
Startup Repair
System Restore
Windows Complete PC Restore
Windows Memory Diagnostic Tool
Command Prompt

  • Select Command Prompt
  • In the command window type in notepad and press Enter.
  • The notepad opens. Under File menu select Open.
  • Select "Computer" and find your flash drive letter and close the notepad.
  • In the command window type e:\frst.exe (for x64 bit version type e:\frst64) and press Enter
    Note: Replace letter e with the drive letter of your flash drive.
  • The tool will start to run.
  • When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
  • Press Scan button.
  • It will make a log (FRST.txt) in the flash drive. Please copy and paste it to your reply.
 
I am currently Running a FRST scan.

I have tried multiple times to use F8 during self diagnostics of the computer, I am unable to access any of those options.

==================== End Of Log ============================
 
Running through REATOGO (as its the only thing I can do without the white screen} It's come up wityh "Looks like you don't know what to do!" *Sigh*.

Will attempt to run in normal mode.
 
When I ran the fix using REATOGO it said "Looks like you don't know what you're doing" and closed the program.
 
For some unknown reason, I was able to get into Start-up Repair, and its now allowing me to do a System Restore.

If this works, fingers crossed, I will attempt a MW scan and an AV scan
 
Okay. . Let me know the status..... If that one is not working...


Lets create a bootable HitmanPro Rescue Disk and run a scan:
STEP 1: Create a HitmanPro.Kickstart USB flash drive
<ol>
<li>While you are using a "clean" (non-infected) computer, <>download HitmanPro</> from the below link.
<a href="http://www.surfright.nl/en/hitmanpro/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> <>HITMANPRO DOWNLOAD LINK</></a> <em>(This link will open a download page in a new window from where you can download HitmanPro)</em></li>
<li>Insert your USB flash drive into your computer and then follow the instructions from the below video:
<iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/aBS902Qr0oc?rel=0" frameborder="0" width="640" height="360"></iframe></li>
</ol>
STEP 2: Remove infection with HitmanPro.Kickstart
<ol>
<li>After you have create the HitmanPro.Kickstart USB flash drive, you can <>insert this USB drive into the infected machine</> and start your computer</li>
<li>Once the computer starts <>repeatedly tap the F11 key </>(on some machines its <em>F10</em> or <em>F2</em>),which should bring up the Boot Menu, from there you can select to boot from your USB.
Next,you'll need to <>perform a system scan with HitmanPro</> as see in the below video:
<iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/lUNHidkYsDQ?rel=0" frameborder="0" width="640" height="360"></iframe></li>
</ol>

Even after a system restore, I am still getting that damn white screen! I still cant get into safe mode using F8 either. Will boot with REATOGO IMGBURN and attempt another FRST Fix. Is there anything else I can do if the Fix doesn't work again?
