Default Cannot start up in normal mode

I was attacked by "Trojan:WinNT.D" several days ago. At first it didn't do
much (locked my wallpaper, disabled my task manager), but a few days later,
my computer had a system failure and since then I haven't been able to start
up in normal mode. I believe the trojan is removed along with all the
spy-ware as McAfee, Ad-aware, malware bytes, windows malicious removal tool,
and McAfee sting no longer detect anything. However I am still unable to
start up in normal mode. Does this mean that my computer is still infected?
Or is this just remaining damage done by the trojan?
I'm not very computer literate, and I hardly know what I'm doing, so I
detailed walkthrough of what i can do to fix this would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Although it's possible that all you have is relatively minor residual
damage, you should still assume you are infected.

In your case, I recommend going to a Web site like thespykiller.co.uk
and follow the instructions in order to get focused expert help:

Good luck.
