Hello,
My computer seems to free every time on boot start-up. I have tried loading up the computer with every windows advanced boot menu (safe mode, and so) as i was going to use system restore and hope that solved the problem. However my computer still froze on boot.
Does anyone know what i can do to sole this problem and if it was possible to have this resolved and me still have all my documents as i have some important thinks id like to have kept....?

do you have recovery disks or a recovery partition?
ermm... not that i know of no, just to check do you mean have i backed up my computer to a disk? if so no, i was hoping to just use system restore but like iv said i can not even log on.
And to be honest with you i dont realy know what a "recovery partition" is.
thanks for the help though i appreciate it!

Iv tryed it threw safe mode still does not load up "/
most laptops that are sold either come with recovery disks
or you have to make your own back up disks when you get your laptop
also some laptops come with a recovery patiction in the computer it`self
when you press the power button on your laptop you can usually hold your f10 or f8 key down and you will be asked do you want to turn your computer to factory settings
(meaning like when you got it from the shop)
the other option you have is
if your comp is registered to you ring up your computer company toshiba,sony..whoever
and buy the recovery disks from them, usually around £30
only use them 3 options as last resort unless you have a backup of your files&data

and bring it back
if that dont work bring it back further
BELIEVE IT OR NOT ... I had to 'Use last good configuration known' eighteen (18) times before I could get my computer back up. It's worth the effort.
Also a word of advice ... Once you do get your PC back up, install the Windows Recovery Console. It will enable you to select a system restore point without logging into Windows. Of course, you will have to log into the Console using your Administator password, if any; otherwise just leave the entry blank, and Voila! You're into the Windows directory.
