This is typical for a system with a failing hard drive or failing RAM. Test your memory with the free Windows memory diagnostic one stick at a time. See if you can boot up in safe mode though. If you can, you can check out the event log to see if there is any mention of bad blocks or errors related to your hard disk. Sometimes going into safe mode and running chkdsk /f fixes the problem.

You prob. have a virus that is what it prob. is.
It can also be that your Hardrive is failing or some tipe of corruption is going on with your operating system. You should get that checked out @ your local computer shop.
DON'T TAKE IT TO GEEK SQUAD, FRY'S, OR A BIG RETAIL STORE.
Go to a store where they have actually done it before. It is a very common prob. so do that

Go into safe mode and do the repairs it told you to.
