Fixing my MBR

[Dark Assassin]

Somehow, my antivirus software (Nod32) didn't pick up an ancient Wyx.B Trojan virus despite me having the most up to date virus definitions. I did some searching and this virus seems to affect the master boot record of Windows. I've also noticed that my cookies are constantly deleted, which just plain annoys me.

I'm wondering, what's a safe and easy way to repair this MBR instead of completing a full reformat? I'd really rather not waste my RAID-0 array, since I don't have enough extra hard drive space on my other drives to back them up fully.

Operating system? If 2000 or later boot with CD and go into the recovery console. Once at the prompt type fix MBR. Might not fix it but it's worth a shot

yep, boot to cd choose recovery console.

fixmbr
is the first to try.

then fixboot

bootcfg is also useful.
