Hi Welcome to FixYa!
If you are having this kind of problem, follow the steps below:
1)Turn off the computer completely.
2)Unplug the charger from the laptop and remove the battery.
3)Press and hold down the power button for 5-10secs. (this will drain the remaining static charges inside the computer)
4)put in back the battery and plug the charger back.
5)Try now to turn on the computer and see if you will be able to pass the Windows Welcome screen.
6)If still no go, turn off the computer again.
7)Try to boot into safemode. (Turn on computer and once you press the power button, keep on tapping on F8.. You should see a screen that has Windows Advanced Boot Options. It has different options like safemode, safemode with networking, etc.)
8)Using the arrow keys, select Safemode. You should be able to login into Windows in Safemode. You might notice that the resolution is different. Don't panic, that's normal.
9)Once you are in safemode, access the System Configuration Utility tool. Open the link to know how to access it. http://vlaurie.com/computers2/Articles/msconfig.htm
10)Once you have accessed msconfig, click on the startup tab>then click on Disable all>click on apply.
11)Click on the Services tab>put a check on the box that says, Hide Microsoft services>Click disable all>click on apply and OK.
12)it will now prompt you with a restart. Restart the computer. and it will now boot back to normal mode.
13)You should be able now to access Windows. If it is successful, there are just some startup items or services that are having conflicts while Windows is trying to load up.
If you are not able to access safemode either, pretty much you have a bad hard drive or Windows could be corrupted. Try first reinstalling Windows on you computer.
Hope this could be a big help.

Hello, Welcome to FixYa. I can't seem to access any previous post dialog that may have taken place but I'd like to help if you can fill me in on whats taken place to this point. Also if you could provide the make and model number that will help avoid any generalizing with you machine. I'll wait for you reply to see whats been done or suggested and checked to this point. Regards, Macmarkus :)

Advanced Boot Options Menu

Restart or press on power button of the computer and keep pressing F8 until the "Advance Boot Options" menu comes up.

2

Use up and down arrow buttons to navigate the menu, select "Safe Mode" and hit Enter.

3 Windows XP Welcome Screen

This time you won't see the computer blue screen error.
When the welcome screen comes up select Administrator and enter administrator's password(if you have one).

4 Launching System Restore

Click on the START button and navigate to the Accessories folder. There you will see a folder entitled "System Tools," navigate to that folder and click on System Restore.

5 System Restore 1

In the System Restore program, make sure "Restore my computer to an earlier time" is selected and click NEXT.

6 System Restore 2

Choose a date on the calendar that you want to restore your computer and click NEXT.

7 System Restore 3

The last page of the System Restore will pop up with your date that you have chosen and click NEXT. The system will reboot and the computer blue screen will be gone.

Have you tried booting from the original system CD? Another option would be to download and burn an ISO image of Linux Ubuntu Workstation 9.10 Live CD. Try to Boot from this CD. If it boots successfully, it should give you the ability to access your hard drive to retrieve your data. It might also indicate if your system is having a hardware issue. We have installed and run Ubuntu Linux and plenty of these machines with good success... great way to troubleshoot hardware functionality and allow access to data without loosing it.

Go to the auto parts place ... NOT THE BIG BOX ONE ... the local auto parts place ... ask the counter man for advice. He or she will show you where the keys are and probably even let you try it to assure you have the correct one. Expect to payu a couple of bucks for this key.

I'm surprised a motorcycle oplerator couldn't figger this out for his/her self.

Enjoy your new tires. You have kept that 2008 bike rolling, obviousl.

e machines have problems like this. unplug it from the back of the computer for ten seconds, plug it back in, do a start mode> If this does not work try rebooting to an earlier time

IS IT A LAPTOP OR DESKTOP ?
IS THE WELCOME SCREEN THE WINDOWS WELCOME SCREEN OR THE MACHINES BOOT WELCOME SCREEN ?

IF IT IS THE WINDOWS WELCOME SCREEN then format and reinstall windows followed by your drivers and software

IF IT IS A DESKTOP and its the boot welcome screen (MOTHER BOARD MANUFACTURE) the try flashing the bios, look for jp1 its cloe to the battery it should have 3 pins and a jumper. the jumper should be on 1 and 2 leaving 3 free, put the jumper on 2 and 3 for 5 seconds then putting it back on one and 2.

If that dont work remover the rams and flash again

If that dont work disconnect all hard drives and other drives from the board and see if it boots. IT WOULD SAY INSERT SYSTEM DISK

if that happens it means one of your drive is bad connect it one by one until u find which and replace it..

IF THAT DONT WORK CHANGE YOU MOTHER BOARD

IF ITS A LAPTOP

DISCONNECT THE BATTERY , remove the rams and there is anoter smaller batter on the main board, remove it as well
leave it off for a few minuters reassemble and it should work
IF NOT THE REMOVE THE HARD DRIVE AND OTHER DRIVES and see if it boots

if it does replace the drives one by one to see which is bad

IF THAT DONT HELP take it in to a technician for repairs to the main board

that is the problem wid ur dos settings.......
