A couple years ago I bought a HP Pavilion a1133w and it was working fine. Then one day, the power went out for a few hours while I was on the computer. When the power comes back on, I start the computer up, it goes to the blue screen with the HP logo as usual, then it went to the black screen with the "Windows did not shut down properly...Safe Mode...Last Known Good Configuration... etc." This happened every time the power went out and the computer shut down incorrectly, so I thought no big deal, hit Start as Normal and the Windows logo showed up, the bar under it came up, then a few blue bars started going in a loop animation that showed it was loading, like normal. It only did it a few times, then stopped at the half mark or so, froze for a second, then the computer restarted, doing the same thing. I've tried every option available, and it won't ever let me beyond the loading screen. Any help would be appreciated, please use terms that aren't too technical as I am not very tech savy. Thanks in advance.
