Safe mode with command prompt.
Last known good configuration setting (most recent setting that worked).
Start Windows normally.
Note: I can start windows in safe mode, but I don’t know what to look for or how to troubleshoot the problem. I did a scan for viruses and spy ware using McAfee and Ad Aware. McAfee didn’t find any viruses, but Ad Aware found some cookies and other files, I removed them, and didn’t make a difference, I still get same message. I also did a disk cleanup and defragmenter my hard drive and still no difference.
If I select Start Windows Normally, it tries to load windows again, and it ends up at same place, it just goes in cycles. I tried to restore to a couple save points and it does not make a difference. Please advice!
Thanks in advance,
Luis

I get the same "windows did not start sucessfully message" as mentioned previously. I put the Recovery and Applications CD in and reset the BIOS. When I restart the computer and accept the Microsoft agreement terms, I get this message: Continuing with this process will erase the current contents of your hard disk drive and replace with the original default system install. I am wondering how--if it's possible--to do a repair so I won't lose all my files. When I abort, I am taken to the A: drive. In DOS, I have tried to change to the d: and c: drives but I get a message that those are Invalid drive specification." I would appreciate any help you may be able to give.
Thank you. Wiggie

And I could not get my laptop going...I decided to reinstall windows...Everything was fine. ..BUT>>>>>!!!!My laptop is working very good...fast....!!! BUT..........Where is the rest of my files !!!
