Hi, Rita,

I think you ought to start by booting into your recovery partition, navigating to Utilities > Disk Utility, and running Repair Disk.

Alternatively, if you can start up from your external drive, you should be able to run Disk Utility > Repair Disk on your MBP from there.

(It doesn't sound like your MBP is truly fried, so I think you can quit panicking.)

Good luck. smile

More: Are you sure you deleted all of Softorino's components? (I d/l'ed it, but I didn't see an uninstaller.)
