Don't know what kind of virus or what this is... - spidermat1 - Nov 24, 2014
Whenever I open google chrome up on startup it redirects me to a site called GamezDoka.
I already reset chrome.
Is this a RAT or adware or what?

It's probably just a toolbar of some sort. Go the ought your extensions/toolbars and delete any silly looking ones

My anti virus (Malware Bytes) says I have no Virus or anything.
And I ran that checker and it says no malware found, and I already reset my browser.
Found this in msconfig https://gyazo.com/7786a7bf752a2cd7c3afae499b16ce13
Do you think disabling it will solve the problem?

This will fix your issue. Also save your logs in so aura can take a look at them later. Ah i cant post links.. just search on google for those tools.

This is called an Adware, but more precisely a browser hijacker. It's not a RAT of any sort.
Malwarebytes is an Antimalware, not an Antivirus. Read this :
[The Brotherhood] Anti-Viruses VS Anti-Malwares : The differences by Aurа
Therefore, I strongly suggest you to install an Antivirus once all this is over.
And yes the entry you posted is suspicious and should be disabled, but more than, it should be deleted.
Also, I cannot check logs anymore so someone else will have to assist the OP.
