Sorry, but I have to try again to find help...
I had to clean my notebook off some viruses, and it worked (Kapersky), but the virus program deleted a file called "sysram.exe". Windows works fine, but everytime I start it, it brings up an error message telling me to delete an execution line for "sysram.exe" from the registry.
Can anybody tell me how to do that? I can't seem to find a file initialising this program... Help!!

Go to "run" on the start menu and type in "regedit" once in regedit go to edit on the top menu. from there go to find. Type in the "sysram.exe" hit find. That should work. To make sure you got all of them hit F3 to "find next" keeping doing that till it finds no more entries of that file. Oh also make sure that you are starting at the very top of the registry when you do the find or else it won't find all the entries. You also might want to to a backup of your registry before you do this just incase something goes wrong. Do this by Going FILE-EXPORT and then save it someplace on your hard disk.
