Hi one & all.
I seem to have a big problem with my laptop. The problem has manifested itself since I ran out of battery while doing a regular spyware sweep.
When I restarted the thing up again, I got the black screen with "Boot in safe mode," "Last known configuration," etc. etc. Selecting one of these, the system seems to begin to boot, but ultimately brings me back to this same screen.
So then, I tried inserting the OS disc with the hope of starting from scratch. This gets so far, but then I'm confronted wth the blue screen of death saying, "A problem has been detected & Windows has been shut down to prevent damage....... If this is the first time you have seen this screen, etc" I cannot see any way of moving from this screen - my only option as far as I can tell is to restart the laptop and go through this whole process again, only to get to these same screens each time, and no further.
This is really frustrating!!!
Would anybody have any ideas? Thank you in desperation.
Edit: I thought it may be useful to post up the error message I'm getting, means nothing to me, but it might do to one of you!
