My hard drive will not boot or read. I'm using Windows 7 and apparently it's a virus infected nothing works except for the blue screen of death. Can't I use Firefox to boot my computer instead of windows? How do I get to boot during the start up?

If the menu has a Repair option, try using it.

If you can't fix this yourself, you will need a tech. Good luck.
