Hi,
Whenever I start my friend's laptop (hp g70-212em) I just get a white screen, before any kind of POST. The only thing I changed after the last shut down was set avast to do a boot time scan. The laptop in question is absolutely riddled with viruses (which I was asked to clean off!), so I'm wondering if any of them could have interfered with the scan?
Also the laptop contains a lot of important pictures, I know I should have backed them up first but I completely forgot (big mistake). However, I'm assuming that if I just plug the hard drive into another computer with a USB to SATA cable I can drag and drop the important pictures.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
