    Strange...so, you are having problems trying to start Windows now?

    Do you get an error message...?

    i can't get anything to open after I reboot. Mainly the internet. It just freezes now. and other systems just slow to pull up. If you can think of anything else I can do to fix this. It just seems to get worse and worse after each step. and just frustrating. thanks for everyone's help. I will just let my computer rest & deal with it in the morning.

    download WinPFind .http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/files/oldtimer/WinPFind.zip
    Right Click the Zip Folder and Select "Extract All"
    Extract it somewhere you will remember like the Desktop
    Dont do anything with it yet!

    Reboot into Safe Mode

    Restart your computer and as soon as it starts booting up again continuously tap F8. A menu should come up where you will be given the option to enter Safe Mode.
    Double click WinPFind.exe
    Click "Start Scan"
    It will scan the entire System, so please be patient!
    Once the Scan is Complete, restart the computer back in Normal Mode.
    Go to the WinPFind folder
    Locate WinPFind.txt
    Place those results in the next reply!
