Virus


Question Posted Friday January 6 2006, 10:09 pm

Ok I believe I have a virus on my computer. The sreen goes black and it says "No Signal Input" Then it restarts itself. And this happens all the time. I have McAfee virus scan and when I scan my computer it doesn't find anything. Is it possible that its not being noticed by the virus scan. and if it is a virus how do I get rid of it?

Hi,

I am really good with computers...i fix them all the time...

I know for sure that something is loose in the back of either your tower or your monitor. Make sure all cords are plugged in tightly! If all coreds are plugged in tightly, make sure they are all in the right spot, there should be a cord connecting the tower and the monitor (this sounds like the problem to me. I hope this helps!

Hey,

From what your telling me it might just be the cord in the back of your computer. Check All Cords and make sure the Blue one (at the bottom) is connected Good because that could be the reason it shows that.

As for McAfee. Don't trust them with keeping your computer clean because it doesn't pick up viruses as good. Some virus scans pick up more than others.

♥ McAfee is a virus detector but not a very good one. Those programs are always not updated so the virus you have (which sounds like to me you have one) will only be deleted if you update your virus software. By this i mean purchase Nortan AntiVirus. It works like a charm. Or you could just reset your whole computer.
(( If i were you though, go for the Nortan!))

Ask if you need anything else!
hope i helped enough to have a decent rate! :o)
