    Freezes on "Starting Windows" no matter what I do!


    Hello,

    I have been browsing this forum for about a day and have picked up lots of tips I thought would help but nothing is!

    I recently got a new desktop computer with Windows 7 64-bit version 1.0 Everything has been working fine until yesterday when I downloaded some updated for Adobe and had to restart. Since then no matter what I do I get frozen on the Starting Windows screen, no logo shows up (I can't recall if it is supposed to) and just sits idle. I have tried booting in safe mode, went to ABO and tried to repair (when I do this it will load files and then go to the same Starting Windows screen), and have tried any other options that seemed relevant. I have also used F5 and those options do the same thing. It did come with a Recovery disk but when I try to boot from this it just gets frozen on the Loading Files screen!

    Because it is so new I really don't have anything that I can't get again, is there a way that I can format in my predicament? I am hoping there is a way I can get into DOS and initiate it, just don't know how. Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Thank you!!

    Welcome and try this

    Go to search
    type cmd
    Do not hit enter
    run as adminsitrator

    Now put in DOS commands and let us know.

    Sorry, I was thinking of booting in safe mode.
