Hello, regardless of what operating system you are using, you could try getting into the advanced options when booting up and try to restore your system to the most recent restore point. To get into advance mode, start your computer and keep pressing f8 until you get to the advance options such as safemode, safemode with command prompt, etc. The option you want is safemode with command prompt. If you are using windows xp, follow the instructions:– start computer– keep pressing f8– once the options come up, select safemode with command prompt.– select the operating system and then press enter– select the administrator account– when command prompt shows up, type the following command:%systemroot%system32restorerstrui.exe– press enter– follow instructions on the screenIf you are using windows 7, here are some possible solutions:http://programming4.us/desktop/3212.aspx
