    laptop stuck in boot loop & won't install windows cd


    Hi, i hope someone can help me.
    I haven't been having any problems with my laptop, but yesterday it wouldn't start up and is stuck in this loop.
    It will ask if i want to start windows normally or do a windows repair. both options land me back to where i started. i've tried f8 for safe mode but it will just go to a black screen and do nothing and i have tried restoring to last known good config but that gets me back to the rebooting loop.
    So now i am trying to install a windows cd. It asks me what language i want to select etc, then i click install windows, which leads to a blue screen saying starting set up, but it just stays on this screen.
    any help would be appreiciated...

    Hello and welcome hiding mate try this first it does take quite q while to run though.

    MEMTEST

    https://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/105647-ram-test-memtest86.htmlthis one you will need to make a bootable disk set the BIOSto optical (or USB if preferred) boot the machine and let it run for at LEAST 8passes unless the errors come up straight away. Takes fair time to complete andsome leave it running overnight.

    Test your HDDs: SeaTools for DOS and Windows - How to Use
    If the laptop uses a SSD, dont use this test on the SSD.

    Do you have access to another computer right now? If so, download Partition wizard Bootable CD (the last one in the link). Burn it in a blank CD or in a USB flash stick.

    Boot into Partition Wizards GUI following this instructions. When you are on the last screen, take a camera snap of the screen and upload the snap here.

    We need to see the partitions and parameters.

    Let us know the results.
