Hello magna86. I ran the FRST 32 bit (as the Vista on my sick machine is 32 bit) again, but I had to do so with a USB drive. I don't have a recovery disk for the sick computer and don't have the capability to make one. My other laptop doesn't have a CD-ROM drive.
So I booted the sick computer from a USB drive (using Rufus, and an ISO of vista 32 bit following the instructions from this thread
https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=152050.0). As my computer booted up, I hit F8 to come to the "Advanced Boot Options" screen just to double check that there is no "repair my computer option". There wasn't, so I chose "Start Windows Normally" (which boots from the USB as I said).
After a while, I came to the Windows installation screen, chose US and English, and hit next. Then, I chose "Repair my Computer". It searches for operating systems, but finds nothing. At the bottom of the window, I have the option to "Load Drivers" or hit "Next". I don't know what I'm doing to look for drivers, so I hit "Next". Then I get a list of options:
-Startup Repair
-System Restore
-Windows Complete PC Restore
-Windows Memory Diagnostic Tool
-Command Prompt
I chose "command prompt" and followed the instructions below to get the FRST log. Before hitting scan, I noted that there were two boxes of options: one labeled "whitelist" with the options registry, services, drivers, and known DLLs - all checked; the other labeled "optional scan" with the options list BCD, and drivers MD5 - both unchecked. Then I hit scan. When complete, I closed the windows and shut down the computer.
The log is attached.
