So this morning I woke up with my pc infected with a virus which wouldn't let it start up.
So I reinstall windows, and now i get a blurry look on some parts of my screen.
Can someone instruct me in the arts of removing blurryness off a screen?

Did you try wiping off the screen? If that isn't the case, I suggest this being the next step. (I intend this all with the least amount of snark possible.)

I tried the first thing. Didn;t work

And about the 2nd step......
DO YOU REALLY THINK I DIDN'T TRY THAT ALREADY?!
Ohhh wait. I didn't
And it still didn't work

That seems really weird. Does the blurriness persist in the same spot no matter what's on the screen? If so, that sounds more like a hardware problem (i.e. your monitor's ducked) than a software one. However, if you formatted your your computer and haven't updated your display drivers yet, do that. Also make sure that the resolution and other display settings are correct.

But really, I have no idea. Most likely someone somewhere has had the same problem, and google knows best if you just keep digging.

UGGHH. Thanks, scratcher. At least you took my problem seriously.

I will keep persisting, and if nothing good happens, then I'll just use this piece of trash till the end of the year, then get a new one. After all this was one of THE BEST laptops out there......in 2010. So yeah, I'll keep struggling. Let's hope no more viruses will infect this thing.

How the hell does one wake up to a virus that prevents windows from loading?

I honestly don't ducking know. I wasted my only free day to reinstall and configure the laptop.

But I solved the problem. I guess I should've thought about this before. All I had to do was update the graphics card

MY first suggestion was a joke to try to get you to laugh, the second was meant in all seriousness.

Everyone should get a pizza for free in each week. 
You could try out the TRON Script which disinfects and cleans up your PC/Laptop from any kind of danger.
