Yes you can use a boot disk or start up disk.
You can make one using the downloads from this site.

To restore OS is always good but last idea. I will suggest from safe mode try to disable hardware like Modem,Sound and Lan one by one from Control Panel -->System-->Hardware--> device manager and try if you can get in Normal mode. Some time such hardware also coz problem to start in normal mode because when service start the hardware do not respond properly...
Good luck !!

Most likely you will need to find the recovery disk.

Go ahead and boot up with safe mode then restore the computer to previous date.

My computer did that a couple months ago. It had a virus that destroyed the hard drive. This could be the problem.

You can use a boot up disk, or a startup disk.....if it's compatible with your system.

Well, that is what people buy it for, isn't it?
Now that Microsoft has switched all their 45,000 computers to GNU/Linux, and found that it runs them upto 50X faster, there is no reason to go back.
