Windows 7: Startup problems with AtiPcie.sys

Hey. My new laptop is now completely useless thanks to Audacity. I downloaded because I needed a good sound editor. I opened it up andstarted messing around with it. Then I made a 2minute chirp from 400 hz to 2000 hz and I was like laughing for some reason. About 45 secs in the computer froze and nothing reponded. So I took out the battery and turned it back on. It got stuck on the starting windows screen so i took out the battery and tried safe mode. It started to load the drivers but I noticed it got stuck on AtiPcie.sys.

Things i have tried but haven't worked:

-System Restore
-Last known good config

Help?

you were laughing for some reason? -> keep the green to a minumum while doing important things on your computer ....

you should scan your computer for viruses using a bootable antivirus CD
i like http://www.techmixer.com/kaspersky-rescue-disk-2010/ after this, if it gets everything off

if you have your Windows 7 installation disk put it in, boot up from that and click startup repair

you install any new drivers lately like this one http://www.sevenforums.com/crashes-d...ipcie-sys.html ?

I tried scanning for viruses but there didn't seem to be any detected. Startup Repair didn't work either. Anything else I can try?

do you have anything on there you need? if you had just do a clean install you can always do another fresh load
