Cannot repair after Win32/Olmaric.AYA
Posted: 27-May-2012 12:16
 
Have been infected by Olmaric virus and want to repair boot sector, but although I can boot into windows, when I boot from a Windows CD the operating system is not found. This is a Win7 64 bit operating system and I get the same "load drivers" message with both Win7 32 bit and Vista 64 bit DVD. As there are no SATA drivers for this laptop (Satellite C560D) I wonder if would get a different result if I track down Win7 64 bit DVD? Any other ideas?

I have tried to repair using Paragon disk manager also. From command prompt bootrec /fixmbr seems to work, but bootrec /fixboot give me Volume does not contain a recognised file system. Have used new Nod32 from USB disk which finds but cannot remove Win32/Olmaric.AYA Trojan. Nod32 finds same unfixable problem from within Windows; Malwarebytes can find no problems now.

Use recovery DVD and install recovery image. In my opinion this is the best thing you can do now.

After one hour you will have clean preinstalled OS with “factory settings”.

I found TDSSkiller from Kaspersky http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208280684 was able to disinfect the boot sector.
