This is infact a cyber security attack, because no matter what system you have, your computer should still be able to boot up, so your system files have been attacked, its just that this company wont admit that they have had a cyber attack since they are a supposedly security company to prevent this from happening, but they were hacked, if you have a windows disk, you can put that in your computer, restart your computer and hold the f8 key down, another screen will come up, and you can click on the repair button, this will replace your corrupted system files, and get your computer back up and running. 😎👍
