Could be any one of dozens of problems. Can you help us out by telling us
what changes were made to your computer - hardware or software - around the
time the problem first appeared?

Hi there,

Try shutting down the PC by typing shutdown -f in the RUN box. If that work,
then apply a patch, download from here:

Usage: Double-click the file and answer and YES when prompted.
