I had the same problem like you did with your computer but my mother is bout to thorw my computer out of the window and get a new one but I told her that she need a reboot cd to reboot it but I can't my three cd that to fix that computer so I had to wait until somebody come and fix it.
My laptop did the exact same thing, it turned out that I had a corrupted file. I had to get my original software disc and re-install my software. you can also try to go to last known good configuration. it's all on the disc. hope this helps! good day!
It happens, your laptop didn't work until u clean your fan to do that u need to open you lap top. It because of dust. After u clean it works and it never frozen and shut down
Before u open u needs the manual if u doesn't. Don't worry I have everything u need gust send me your laptop name and product name. (trimtower@aol.com)

A few weeks ago I bought a used IBM Thinkpad T42. I brought it home,put it on my kitchen table turned it on. During the boot process the blue screen came up with the same error in this thread. Unable to fix it myself I returned it to the store and they replaced it with another T42 which worked perfectly in the store. Got home set computer on kitchen table,turned it on,same blue screen! Phoned the store back and told them,they almost didn't believe me. I returned the computer...they checked it over found nothing wrong. Today the owner of the store and his tech guy brought a 3rd T42 to my house..booted it up in my living room worked fine...carried it to the kitchen within a minute, Blue screen!
We tried a bunch of things(turning of my wireless router,unplugging things...just on battery, plugged in) nothing in my area to cause any high frequency?? I don't think
We're all scratchin' our heads...any thoughts

I have had the same thing happen to me too!! I talked with my friend and his computer has done the same thing...I have an HP Pavillion dv6000...i dont know what is wrong!! HELP!!
Hey, RELOAD WINDOWS. It will save you hours of time trying to figure out how to get around the blue screen so you can try the suggested fixes that you cant load up windows to try. And, god for bit you have a new computer that simply doesnt have a floppy drive so you can load up an older start disk and get to a dos prompt. LOL.
Just reload windows, don't select to format the drive partition. Just reload windows! Get up and on, run some backups, then reload windows again after formatting the Active partition that you're putting Windows on. There is corruption in the drivers somewhere. Reload the operating system without the format option

It's me again ^0^.
I want to tell you that I have no CD-Rom on my laptop T_T. But I run an Ubuntu OS along with Windows and I can use Ubuntu to access my Windonws partiton. Can I do any thing with this? What file of Windows should I copy from another computer to fix my problem?
Help me please

If you find no help for your computer, take the hard drive out(careful!), and put it somewhere safe, get a new computer, with a (recommended) new hard drive, and connect your old hard drive to the new computer(make sure to keep the new hard drive connected, you don't want windows to boot from the faulty drive!).
I was just experiencing the same issue.
I tried to re-install XP, but it wanted to format my drive, so I stopped.
I switched mt CPU and re-seated my RAM. Windows finally started. It advised me that it had recovered from a serious error.
I am running Service Pack 3.

I just had the same problem recently with my laptop! and I was freaking out because the laptop actually belongs to my school (i'm homeschooled), so I talked to my friend and he said I need to stop leaving it on 24/7 because I can blow my processor that way, and he suggested I wait 12 hours to use it again, so we'll see!
Try it for yourselves to see if it works.

I had the same issue last week. I ended up just doing the recovery program which reset my settings to the factory settings. Does anyone know if there's a way to retrieve all my hardware files? When I did the recovery, they said only the applications would be lost but the files won't be deleted. But nowI can't find them!
I took it into compusa and they found a virus that caused it. McAfee had not detected it. They wiped it out and copied my hard drive and then reformatted. Lost alot of stuff but kept the pictures and music. I'm not using Mcafee any longer. Another reason not to leave the computer on 24/7 is the hackers have a fun time with it. Good Luck.
Yeah, I asked a friend of mine to help. I used my parents' dell XP OS disc on my hp laptop just for shits and giggles and it seems to be working
what I did was pressed f3 as soon as the laptop booted, and then when everything loaded it asked me to press enter or r, I pressed R and had to type chkdsk \r, after a while my computer shut off, and now, when I press r it tells me to press 1 for c:\windows and then it just freezes, so I think i'm gonna take it to a pro and let them look at it.

It is a virus. Go to safe mode and run AVG and ad-aware for viruses. It should find the virus which should be a generic trojan and delete it. Then retart
had this problem for months and true mcafee did not catch it. My computer would try to boot up and then shutdown I would manage to get it to boot and stay on but it would do it again the next day or something like that. I did not know it was a virus I thought it could be my router or something. So I suggest for all of you to download AVG and AdAware for free and run the programs in safe mode and I guarantee this should fix the problem for most of you if it finds the virus. Let me know if it works for you guys

I have just come across this problem and I am looking to reinstall windows so I went to the bios and made it read the cd drive first where my windows home cd is and when I boot up it says booting from cd, press any key to continue I press but nothing happens it then goes to the 'were sorry for inconvenience (safe mode, last known)' page but I cant do anything, my keyboard won't work but it works at the bios page.
PLS PLS PLS PLS HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PLS PLS PLS PLS HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the man is 100% correct the os is corupt this can happen when the system isnt shut down corectly....reboot using your recovery disk.
go into the bios,change it to boot from the dvd drive first save your changes and exit.turn off laptop .turn on put in boot disk and go from there depending on what you want to loose....as it will give you the option of completley starting from fresh all your pics maybee gone ect but so are any virus....hope this helps

Hey,
my laptop is doing exactly the same thing, it was working absolutely fine, however after a manual shut down is doing exactly what was stated above. I looked around a bit about what it could be and I was told there was a possibilty it may be a virus that was infecting my computer. However, I then spoke to a friend who knows someone who works for windows and they said my harddrive was bin material!!!
However, after reading this thread it seems they could be wrong, I havn't tried the solutions stated yet, so I can't say if they have worked for me but it's sure as hell worth a try if its going to save me having to buy a new harddrive and then paying for a service on my laptop.
I only bought my laptop last april and havnt experianced a single problem with it. I understand there is advice on this thread on how to fix the problem, but has anyone worked out what went wrong with it in the first place??
cheers guys, i'll let you know how I get on. Fingers crossed on good news!
