Several BSODs with no possibility to start Windows7

[RicardoZagada]

Hi

I was playing Mass Effect on my PC when it crashed with a BSOD. When I started it it happens the following:

- if started in secure mode - it gives a BSOD with no name.
- if the repairing option is selected - while loading the first bar of files it resets with no BSOD.
- normal start - it gives a BSOD.
- start with windows 7 CD in -> resets while loading windows with no BSOD.

I was hopping someone could lend me a hand like changing some topics in the BIOS, since I am not used to change those options risking to compromise the machine integrity.

My first priority is to recover the files, but I need a open OS for that... I am trying to get a name of one of the bluescreens but only the first had a title and I ran out of time before taking note of it.

- x86 (32-bit) or x64 -> x86 (32-bit)
- the original installed OS on the system -> Windows 7 Ultimate
- an OEM or full retail version -> It is not original of the PC and I have used it many times.

- What is the age of system (hardware)? 4 years
- What is the age of OS installation (have you re-installed the OS?) 1 and a half year

EDIT: I managed to open the OS and copied some of the error details:

I am making a backup of my files at the moment but I would like some suggestions for me to find out what happened and if it can be fixed. Some software wold be nice... I use Combofix when the situation is dire but I doubt it fixes startup files (I guess that is where the problem is).

Thanks in advance for any help provided

Have you tried booting in safe mode (F8)?

Have you tried booting in safe mode (F8)?

Sorry I have tried it and I wrote it in the thread bute I called it "Secure Mode". I am portuguese and here it is called "Modo de Segurança" and I forgot how it is called in English. My bad

But like I said:

- if started in secure mode - it gives a BSOD with no name.

Please just check the thread again because I made an EDIT before your answer. My main concearn is if happens again and now I am trying to find out what happened and I would apreciate some advice.

Thanks for the reply
