After running sfc I got what is posted in the text file

Truthfully, I don't know how to read the log file. It looks like sfc has fixed some files, go ahead and do it few more times to see if it can fix 100% at the end. It's possible that after few attempts, sfc will give up and tell you it is unable to fix more files. If that is the case, you will need to perform a http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/3413-repair-install.html.

Have you messed up with your registry so far bro?

Ttran, I restarted the PC after doing the SFC and it looks good so far. Thanks for the help, I hope this fixes the original guys problem too.

 

[wmdkitty]

It worked like a charm for me, too. SO glad I didn't have to take the lappy into the shop!

 

[duancc]

Good thing for you wmdkitty! Since this happened, I finally set up my backup

I hve only one user account in this laptop and it is an administrator account. Please help me with this problem .

Please stop posting the same question across multiple threads.

I have answered your question here

Hi
Thanks for the answer. Unfortunately I can not do as you have advised since windows keeps restarting every 8-10 seconds. it gets stuck when I get to the stage where I have to right click. This problem is ruining every thing!

 

[Golden]

That sounds like a different problem all together....I suggest starting a new thread that describes that problem, and provide some details about your system
