hi, please can you help me my pc has windows xp and a friend was using it while i was out and ive come home to find it wont start, it goes through all the set up and says press any key to start windows. and other stuff about saying: this could of happened if there was a power cut, or the pc switched off to protect your files. press this key to use the last working windows setup.
do you know what i can do?
thanks, vicki

your friend probably turned off the pc without shtting it down properly, it should boot normally either with "last known good configuration" or "start windows normally"
