    if you ever manage to load up windows (in safe mode), here is a site you can download the missing files.

    p.s. from what i have managed to read up, the only way other people who have had the same problem overcame it was by doing a full system reinstall.

    you can access control panel from task manager by clicking on

    File
    --New Task(Run...)

    A pop-up menu should appear.

    In the space provided, type "control" (without the quotes).

    then hit ok. this should open up the control panel.
