The first thing to do is go into Safe Mode and do a System Restore to a point in time when all was working well. You also should consider any additions to your computer both hardware and software that were right before this started to occur. Did you update any drivers, or instal any software, or add a printer or other hardware? It could have been installed or added up to a week or a bit more before this began to occur.
It is critical you find out what changes were recent as if you don't the problem will simply repeat itself after you perform the System Restore and this will wipe out that restore point.
So, if you added, lets say a printer recently, before you perform the System Restore and while you are in Safe Mode, unhook the item when it says it is safe to do so using the Safely Remove Hardware Wizard which you can find in the Notification Area down by your clock. Click to expand the area then click on the Safely Remove Hardware Icon. Follow the instructions and then go into the Add/Remove applet to remove any related software.
Or, if you recently installed a software program first uninstall it via the Add/Remove programs. Something is causing this problem and if you can't figure out what it is you may need to take your computer to a reputable computer repair shop for assistance. There isn't any shame in doing so, I have done it myself on occassions.
If you are able to remove any recent hardware and/or software additions, first try to boot up again and see if all goes as it should.
We once thought our computer was toast after installing the wrong RAM sticks. It seems to be dead and we went out and bought a new computer. We thought this because it didn't crash until over a week after we installed the RAM, so we didn't think it was at fault, when it really was. So, one day after we had the other computer up and running I thought I would take a look at the old one and I decided to try removing that RAM, once I did and then put the old RAM sticks back in, it booted up like nothing had ever been wrong with it.
So, after first removing any possible offending articles try booting up and see what happens. If all does not go as it should reboot back into Safe Mode and do that System Restore.
To boot into Safe Mode, right after the manufacturers logo start tapping the F8 key. Once the screen shows some selections use your arrow keys to highlight Safe Mode, hit enter, hit enter again when it highlights your OS version, and wait for the welcome screen, then use an Administrator account, either the system one or yours if it is an Administrator account, put in any password you use, or leave it blank if you don't use one, and you will then enter Safe Mode.
A window will appear asking if you wish to use System Restore, click whatever you need to accept that and then follow the instructions for selecting a Restore Point. Once this is done just allow it to reboot and see if all is well.
If not take it to a repair shop. Good luck and have a great day.

in case you go with this concern solved without format/sparkling installation you will ought to offer the incredibly errors message (0x000etc) If the computing device automaticly reboots do right here: commence the computing device, for the period of commence up press F8 (till now domicile windows loading show screen) one selection ought to checklist "do no longer restart on crash" or something comparable (my domicile windows language isn't set to english, sorry) it incredibly is a similar checklist that has risk-free mode as an selection, however the above isn't provided as a posibility except you press F8 for the period of startup in case you go with that the blue show screen would be displayed on your show screen untill you press enter. you could then study the errors code on line. without understanding which errors or what's incredibly going incorrect i'm afraid no person could provide you incredibly suggestion on fixing it different than "delete each little thing and reinstall"
