You can try replacing the bootloader. Without knowing what OS you're trying to repair I can't give you instructions on how to do that.

Easier to make a BartsPE, VistaPE or UBCD4win or just use windows disk to fix it.

In such situations (CD boot ineffective), I just remove the drive and stick it in an external casing and zero out the MBR boot code from another machine.
Plug it back in, and boot a recovery CD. |
I kind of went right over that. "livecd USB device virus unmounts my primary drive and dosn't allow cd boot"
Is the live usb the source of the virus? |
Maybe you should post Make Model & Os, so that someone can help you.
