did ComboFix reboot the machine ? did you allow CF to continue after installing Recovery Console. does Recovery Console boot menu appeared during boot-up
No, CF didn't reboot the machine, it had installed the recovery drive and then proceded to scan the machine and finished with a log, then when the log came up on the screen, the entire start bar and the blue bar at the bottom of the screen with the sys tray in disappeared completely. I allowed CF to continue after installing the recovery console. and the recovery console came up as a menu in the reboot screen.
1. Restart your computer 2. Before Windows loads, you will be prompted to choose which Operating System to start 3. Use the up and down arrow key to select Microsoft Windows Recovery Console 4.

Seriously? That's not a problem? I think things seem ok, but I'll have to take a look tomorrow when I have more time, right now, I should be doing an overdue assignment for college, so I'll have to take a look at things tomorrow.
It's not a problem from my point of view, it means that it is very unlikely that there is any malware left
I should warn you though, after discussing what happened to your machine with a couple of colleagues we feel that your hard drive may be on its way out. I would suggest that you back up any important data that you want to keep.

That doesn't sound good. When you say back up any important data, can that be done with the use of removeable storage devices?
Hmmm. I've been thinking, would it be easier to get a new laptop? I don't like the one I've got and its not capable of running all the programs for college and stuff, and it gives me an excuse to save up lol
In some respects, a new machine is always worthwhile. It depends on when you would be able to get it, I would suggest copying your important files in the next week or so to be on the safe side.
