Answer 1

Before you attempt to restore Windows, have you tried booting it in Safe Mode? Turn on the computer, and then begin to repeatedly press the F8 key until you get a screen that offers you the Safe Mode option. Often booting into Safe Mode is enough to fix the probelm with the PC.

If a Safe Mode boot does not fix things, but you do get in to Windows, you can just a "check disk" to hopefully recover any damaged files, or create a new user id if needed.

Try that BEFORE you do the Windows restore....

Answer 2

Try this. Reboot your PC and tap the F8 key. Choose "Last Known Working Configuration". That should sort out your problem. If that does not work do a system restore. Repeat the first step and choose "safe mode". Once in safe mode click Start - All Programs - Accessories - System Tools - System Restore. Restore your PC to a date you know it was working OK. Preferably use a 'system scheduled restore point'.
Good luck
