Windows 7 Stalls on "Starting Windows" While Repairing with Boot DVD
Alright, here's the problem.
I have a standard Dell XPS 15", it's worked all year, no issues.
All of a sudden, it freezes. So I restart the computer, try again, and I get a blue screen. Try again, another blue screen.
I wait 10 minutes, and now when I boot it doesn't even start Windows. The BIOS POST comes up, then nothing... just blackness. I'm guessing the HDD is kaput.
I select to boot from CD/DVD and enter my WIN7 Home Premium DVD. all is good, you know, "Press any Key to Boot from CD/DVD".
It goes to the "Starting Windows Page". and now nothing.
It's been "Starting Windows" for an hour...
So, any suggestions? Thanks!
