Found the model on the company's website but it doesn't tell me anything about the sound. Just that it's High Definition Audio. :/

Here you go:
Realtek ALC888S Audio Driver v6.0.1.5628

This is assuming you have Vista 64bit, which apparently came with your computer.

It is very important to know exactly what to look for when hiring computer service consulting services. The quality of your decision will impact the way in which you do business and the quality of your own services, so it is imperative that you select the best possible professional computer service consulting services.

My computer was attacked by a virus. I can't log into my regular profile now without getting some fake "copyright violation" notices. Task bar never shows up. Control+Alt+Delete says the Task Manager has been disabled by the Administrator. If I log in as a Guest, or even in Safe Mode now, I keep getting virus alerts (virus, it's not an anti-virus that I have installed). Can't do a System Restore in Safe Mode, because it says it has been disabled. I have read that once disabled, you lose any previously saved profiles...so even if I get it switched back on, it's no help. I have run both MalwareBytes and Search & Destroy numerous times while in Safe Mode, deleted/fixed all problems found (quite a few), and nothing helps. Every time I run them, the same issues reappear.

As the Brits might say, I'm properly fucked. I'm thinking at this point I need the help of a professional. So why I'm posting here, I don't know. :laughing:

What actual virus program do you use?
MalwareBytes and Search & Destroy aren't virus programs.

Hmm good question, I think I just use the built in XP one, which apparently didn't help much. Actually I allowed this virus by accidentally clicking the wrong button. It's completely my fault. :banghead:

Hmm.. yea there's no built in XP anti-virus program.. unless you're talking about an included software package like Norton or something like that. Which, is usually just a trial version.

I'd recommend going with either Avast or AVG, both of which are free. They're good.. and even if you accidentally initiate a virus download, those two programs are up to date enough to catch it on a manual scan.
If it turns out your problem is actually spyware/malware trying to emulate a virus so that you end up buying something, then those can usually be dealt with individually or with programs like MalwareBytes, depending on how recent your definition database is on it.

Just know that you don't really have to resort to paying a professional unless it's your last resort... if you don't mind doing a little research and allowing me or any of the other tech-savvy people in here to help you out, you may be able to save some money.
