If possible, try booting into Safe Mode. To do this, hit the F8 key repeatedly while your computer's booting. This will allow you to select "Boot into..... Safe Mode" or something to that effect. While in Safe Mode, try to backup your data as soon as possible, then use the Recovery CD's that came with your laptop.
Less destructive methods that can be performed, if possible, include: running a virus scan to remove any possible malware, (non-destructively) reinstalling the OS that came with your computer, and using the Recovery Console on your (I'm assuming this is XP) disc.

Ok
1) Restart your computer
2) while restarting press F8 couple of times
3) then if new screen shows up click on "safe mode" ( something that says safe mode)
4)it should restart fine

No, i don't think of there could properly be any virus. There could be many stuff operating in historic past even as ur computer is booted up. attempt this"yamisoft living house windows 7 manager" application. it may tweak into ur equipment and could inform you the apps. Which runs at historic past and grant you with the characteristic to close it.

You might try booting into safe mode and running a scan disk.

You might want to start it in the safe mode.. Also. If you have a recovery disk, use that to start.
