hi, i have windows 7 home premium 64 bit but i get a BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) when 'Starting Windows'. i cannot boot into safe mode, i get the BSOD again. i have tried last good known configuration, and same happens again. i tried startup repair with the startup repair CD several times. i do not have the original windows 7 CD so i cannot reinstall windows. i have a dual boot setup with windows xp and windows 7 but i want to keep them both. Please Help!!!

when you see the selection screen with win7 and winxp select win7 but don't press enter. press f8 instead. select "repair my computer" and do a startup repair

But does "startup repair" say? click on something like "view diagnostics" there. Does it have 0x0 as result code on all tests, or does it find errors? if so post message

It restarts by itself in safe mode. So it crashes. Disable autorestart on failure and post crash reason
in advanced boot options:
Disable Automatic Restart on System Failure
Prevents Windows 7 from automatically restarting if an error causes Windows 7 to fail. Choose this option only if Windows 7 is stuck in a loop where Windows 7 fails, attempts to restart, and fails again repeatedly.
