    Have you tried to press F8 and go to the system menu for windows. go there and choose last known good configuration and seee if that changes things if not then go back to the same menu if u can and then choose safe mode and then u should get into windows in safe mode and the ngo to my computer and decompress the hdd.

    Let me know how you go??

    The screen wont tell you about F8 you will have to pressit from the first system screen repeatedly till it comes up u have to do it from the bios screen and before the windows startup screen.
