hi. i need help badly here.

i tried to on my computer today and it got stuck on the loading window screen for very long. After that it says the window failed to start. i click on "computer repair" and let it run for some time. the result shows this "window failed to start, a recent hardware of software change might be the cause. error code 0x17."

i tried to start the computer using command prompt but it auto shut down after it finish loading all the files.
