Hi

After reading this whole post i have to agree with Mike, disconnect
this machine from any network, low level the drive or used debug(script
on ms site for clearig partition table) from a known clean bootdisk to
level all the partitions then leave machine powered off for 20 mins ish
so there is no memory resident nasty

then with known clean media boot from the the OS cd and create
partitons and install, if you a mega paranoid enable any write
protection to the cmos that your motherboard has and also any bios
virus protection which oonly really prevents boot sector virus' but hey
give it a go

once this has been done there is no way unless from an outside source
that this can be reinfected, unless and i dont know if this is possible
but could the code reside in the cmos if so flash the bios of your
motherboard with the latest version, or flash it agin if you have the
latest version THEN enable write protection for the cmos

another thing "It keeps re-installing from the partition" what on earth
does this mean, is this a system with a backup partition on to recover
from if so that may be infected but the above process will resolve that
anyway

Hope you fix it , logic dictates the above and previous advice from
Mike if followed acuratley will remove the(hey make that ANY) virus

HTH
