It appears that Windows7's Licensing Store may have become corrupt or somehow, unreadable. Please try the below steps to recreate the Store.
1) Click the Start button 2) Type: CMD.exe in the start search field 3) Right -Click on CMD.exe and select Run as Administrator 4) Type: net stop sppsvc (it may ask you if you are sure, select yes) 5) Type: cd %windir%\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\SoftwareProtectionPlatform 6) Type: rename tokens.dat tokens.bar 7) Type: slui 8) After a couple of seconds Windows Activation dialog will appear. 9) You likely be asked to re-enter your product key and/or re-activate.
The key at the bottom is likely to be an OEM key and will only work with an OEM disk. You can contact the dealer and they should provide you with the disk, or even better a restore disk. Failing that you'll have to procure one, legally!
What errors do you see on reboot?
Without knowing more I am inclined to think it may be your hard drive that failed.
Can you get into safe mode?
Can you get into the BIOS?
usually it happen when you install a program in your unit that it's not compatible in your os. if you use a win xp try to reboot press f5 several times while booting you will see booting menu like safe mode, boot with network, last good know configuration.. chose the last good known.. and it will open you like when you haven't installed the one that damage your software
not sure if this question is about windows XP or windows 8.
sound as if directx/java was not installed correctly or not enough memory.
how many times has this happened? if more than one i would reinstall.
good luck

Then I suggest you make an alternative email if for nothing more than these situations.
seems you dont have your password? there are some utilities in the net to be able to get your passwrod. but in case you dont want it that way, you can remove your hard disk and place it in an external hdisk case and use it as external. you can then browse your disk and copy your files... all that you need before you erase them.
When closing the System Configuration, if any modifications were made, it asks you if want to "Restart" or "Exit without Restart" and there is a checkbox that says "Do not show this message again".
I guess you put a tick in that box and the clicked Restart.
And now everytime you exit if after making changes, it always remembers you choice of "Restart".
To get that option back, try this
