[URGENT] windows not starting up ):

Post by release »

i keep getting this message:

We apologize for the inconvenience , but windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might of caused this.
(then it goes on about what to do with the following options)

-Safe mode
-Safe mode with networking
-Safe mode with command prompt
-Last known good configuration(your most recent settings that worked)
-Start windows normally

-----

which ever one i choose it just takes me back to the same screen with the listed options.

any help is appreciated (:

First of all- open case and clean it xD if theres lots of dirt in the fan, it'll switch off when starting up a lot.
Second, put in recovery dvd or windows dvd, start your pc, and you will be able to enter boot from CD.
Reinstall windows etc i guess :)

Gd luck with it >.<

Windows crashed. If you have any important files on your HDD try to repair Windows with your Windows CD/DVD and get your files, then format the PC. Had the same problem long time ago.
