I ran a system recovery before I did system restore?

Question by jimmys girl<3: I ran a system recovery before I did system restore?
I recieved a virus on my computer in my bedroom, so I did a system recovery before i even did a system restore. Now, my wireless internet won’t connect, also, my security center is unavailable(my firewall & everything.) How do I fix this? I have been working on it for a week now off & on in between school and everything, and i have become extremely frustrated. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I own a Compaq desktop, if it matters.
