and have searched the internet trying to find how i can detect and remove a bios virus. i also have 2 bios chips one is a recovery bios on my X58 motherboard for core i7. updates updates ec t, before i plug in any other hard drive. also when i re-install the OS i always unplug every hard drive except the boot drive, i also unplug the internet, and i dont plug in other hard drives until all upates are done, antivirus, firewall is installed and updated ect. and iv tried all of these methods seperat and in many different combinations. iv tried using a western digital factory disk and formatting the boot drive, tried dariks boot nuke. Re-installing everything never helps i get basicly the same random stuff. but if i log in as administrator i cannot see those same files not even with selecting show hidden files ect.
sometimes it dos'nt happen when i re-install my operating system but will happen weeks down the rd, then this problem persist usaly for 3+ reboots then is fine again typing ect.Īnother random problem is i use a limited user account, and rarly use the admin account well sometimes i can be logged i8n as limited user i open through c: drive, documents and settings, users admin it promts for a password i type it in, then i see all these strange files, not quit sure what they are but they start mostly with nt.(then a bunch of strange sysmbles here) and there is like 10-20 different files like that. nothing will work except on screen keyboard. iv used both legacy keyboards and USB keyboards. i type and it dos'nt show up thus i cant log into my own computer. but when i log in somewhere, i'll type text, name, password and i will see absolutyl nothing, key scrambler wont even work until i type username and password twice.Īnother issue i get sometimes is when i redo my pc i go to log in and i am unable to type anything. just a few i can think of right off hand. alot of times i redo my pc and instantly when it boots up there are subtle but probably huge problems.
Hello, i believe i have a bios virus, no matter how many times i do a re-install with a retail disk withe a hour to a day, same problems appear.
