start up repair failed to automatically repair computer

[merrily]

Apparently my computer had double files on the c drive so I deleted ten yesterday, before running a disk clean up. I also deleted several miscellaneous programs (not on C) installed when I bought it. today however it failled to start normally. I've tried what was recommended on system recovery options ( command prompt, window memoery diagnostics) but is hesitant to do a system restore/system image recovery as I don't have a piint in time for it to restore too.It has some really important pictures that I don't want to lose. please help me figure out what is wrong.

After "startup repair" you have a choice to click. Something like "view diagnostic details". Click on it. What tests were done and don't have status code 0x0? Give all details please.

You uninstalled programs the way you should?

yeah I did, it uninstalled normally. these were like movie creator/ picture editor programs

i am sure it has something to do with the c files I deleted. which is weird because they were duplicates.

Explain plz. Does "safe mode" crash immediately? Or reboot immediately? Or....

Tell me as much details as possible about these files. Names and folders.

 

[merrily]

I don't remeber much... arg. the files were in the c drive first folder called program files I think.

saf mode crashes which would lead to th black screen where it asks you to do a diagnosis. in the beginning diagnosis was stuck in an infinite loop but now it justs says windows cannot fix the problem automatically after i did what the microsoft link i linked above told me to do.

the names of the files kinda looks like this one http://forums.techguy.org/attachments/97730d1170259948/screenshot3.jpg

You probably deleted the main files not the duplicates. Files in C:\Program Files are normally spoken programs.

 

[merrily]

I clearly clicked for the duplicate files -.0 I tried to boot into safe mode and it returns to the black screen asking me to do a start up repair

Anyway .... http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/700-system-restore.html OPTION TWO. So go back in time when all was still normal. Post results

yeah but it says that I dont have a clear point in time, and I really don't want to lose the pictures. Stupid I know i should have done a back up.

Sure you have NO "restore points" at all? Normally creating restore point is enabled by default.

Please answer #2

 

[merrily]

well it IS possible but it says you are in restricted access mode (something like that) and whatever it restores is permanent. Would I lose the picture files if I continue?

With system restore you won't lose any jpg, xls, doc, mp3 etcetera files.

"restricted access mode"??? Exact message please. Try the last restore point or the one before that (write down date/time).
