Hi!, some months ago i installed windows 7 64bits on lg e500 notebook. Until now it has been running with no problems.
Here's the problem: 2 days ago i shutted it down and it was installing some updates (and saying not to unplug the machine) so i went out and left it installing the updates. Then, my notebook was freezed so i had to shut it down (manually). When i restarted it the windows logo appeared along with some colored stripes (blue, green, orange,...) and after some couple of minutes my machine restarted (by itself) and did the same thing.
To sum up, windows doesn't start correctly so i can't log in my account

If someone could help me...

1) When you switch ON your computer, start tapping the "F8" key to get "Windows Advanced Options"( if boot menu appears, press "Esc" key and keep tapping the F8 key)
2) Select "Repair your computer" --> Follow the instructions
3) When "System Recovery Options" appear --> Select the option "Startup Repair".
Good Luck
