Hey guys.

I was using windows explorer and clicked on one of my drives and the PC crashed. Couldn't do anything. I left it for half an hour and still nothing. Rebooted it and it goes through the usual screens but then fails to boot up. I get a black screen with one line of jibberish - letters and random symbols.

I can go into the BIOS and all my hard drives seem to be there so I'm not sure if any have crashed or if it's something else.

Any ideas?

Thanks guys.

P.s. Apologies if I've posted this twice, I don't think it worked the first time.

Thanks for your post. I tried tapping F8 for safe mode. It gives me an option of which disk I wish to boot from. I choose my main drive and then just does the same. No safe mode.

Any other ideas?
