Hi all,
So today I decided to clean my windows 7 pc, like I always do when my fps drops in games. This time however, I cleaned the graphics card as well as the cpu fan.
After start up, two options pop up
1. startup repair
2. start windows normally
both options would eventually reach an inevitable conclusion: corrupt registry
I tried going into safe mode, but it doesn't work...can't get past the startup screen without comp going into "windows is loading files" I don't have any backup discs since they never came with the tower, but judging from other posts I found on google they don't work either.
So, my startup repair is useless, cmd prompt from advanced repair options don't work, recovery is a bust...any way to fix this would be appreciated.
EDIT: tried this
http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/139576-startup-repair-infinite-loop-recovery.html
everything worked up until "copy *.* mybackup"...all i get is this "the device is not ready"
Here are some problems it presented:
