Tips for removing the nyan cat payload from the memz virus

Total Mystris

WARNING!!! THIS HAS ONLY BEEN TESTED ON LAPTOPS!!!

 

When you were using you're windows xp for no reason and a friend had tricked you into installing memz and it crashes right away leading to the nyan cat and you want to take his wallet and buy a windows xp with his money and punch him for it, no need. Go on amazon and buy a recovery essence cd for windows xp and follow the steps to remove it fast. REMEMBER THIS WILL NOT RECOVER DATA!!! BUT IT WILL SAVE YOU SOME MONEY BESIDES THAT 10 DOLLARS FOR THE DISK.

 

Step 1. Turn on your windows xp.

Step 2. Wait for the nyan cat to show up.

Step 3. Insert you're recovery essence cd.

Step 4. Turn off the computer.

Step 5. Remove the battery and unplug any power sources connected.

Step 6. Remove the hdd from under the laptop.(if you dont know how, look for the exact name of your laptop. For example i have a hp pavilion dv5000. Look up how to remove the hdd from you're laptop on youtube and then go to the next step once it is removed.)

Step 7. Turn the computer on (DO NOT PUT THE HARD DRIVE IN YET).

Step 8. When booting the laptop, press the corresponding key to go to the bios/boot menu.

Step 9. Look for the option that says cd-rom drive and hover over it and press enter.

Step 10. Put the hdd back in.

Step 11. If you see a list of options to boot from select "Alternate install. Then just do a normal installation like you did when you first bought the computer. THATS IT! If you have any comments or questions just post them whenever. Thanks.

Good job. You just listed the steps on how to reinstall Windows. How amazing. Even then, you unplugged the HDD so it'll go nowhere, not sure what you are trying to do here.

Why mention Windows XP though? It's been unsupported by Microsoft since 2014.

Because, the memz virus is still used and the memz virus is made for windows xp.

so this affects the .5% of people still using windows XP.

 

and all you have to do is kill it via command prompt, then run malwarebytes, and fix your mbr.  super easy
