Hello,
i have an interesting problem with my operating system. its been installed like 12 times now. so i know its not a formatting thing because I've reformatted almost 14 times now with 3 different hardrives which i had from other computers. but my issue is, ill start the computer but it will get to the windows loading screen fine, the load bar will go across the screen exactly 5 and 1 1/2 times and then freeze, no matter what i do. im not entierly sure what i did to make this happen, but any help any of you can offer me would be greatly enjoyed.

try downloading a HD sector check and check if any of your hard drives sector's are damaged..
or else you could try to put a windows cd in it.. and repairing the install

unfortunately to my dead knowing its not the hard drive i went out to buy 2 brand new ones both are different drives to there no way i was unlucky enough to get 3 faulty drives in a row.

as for repairing the install i erm. i dunno what i should be repairing. i dunno what files are boot files. but the dumb thing that messed me up to begin with was delete ntfs.nfl or somtin like that, i dont remember its exact name but it turned out to be a primary boot file. since then iv reformated completely approximately 10 times on all three drives and still have the same problem. so i dunno what i did wrong.

NOOOOO!!!!! it didnt work. oh well i tried. reformating does nothing for me. so any other suggestions for help getting my operating system to work again is open as far as im conserned. i can open windows in safe mode perfectly fine. but normal it just wont happen.
