My windows Vista has been infected by the Pceu virus. The computer is locked and it is not possible to get past the desktop on start up. The scam pceu page showed up initially but no longer shows.

- 171 views
Hi, Im running Windows 7 Professional 64bit. I've setup backup, it backs up all my data and system image daily on a different 2TB Hard Disk. Now the main Hard Disk (1TB) has been partitioned into 200GB and 800GB. (C: drive being 200GB). Lately I've been noticing that my C: drive could be filling up. Now, can someone please tell me how to do the following things, strictly using Windows 7 backup and restore function: 1) I wanna remove the partition on Main Disk (1TB) and instead of having my C: drive on a 200GB partition, I'll rather transfer my whole system on un-partitioned 1TB Main Disk. That way my C: drive will have way more room than i can ever use. How? OR 2) T…
