My computer just now decided to stop working (I'm on a friends computer typing this in a frenzy because I haven't a clue as to how to fix it)

Before the big f'up I had tried to open internet explorer and iTunes at roughly the same time, both didnt come up in a long time so I hard shut down (even cntl alt del didn't come up). When I started back up, it made it to the login screen and I clicked on my name. Directly after that I got two error messages

1) svchost.exe "instruction at "0x7c809fa1" memory cannot be written"
2) explorer.exe failed to initialize (0xc0000006)

I tried to start in safe mode and the svchost error disappeared but the explorer.exe error happened again.

What is the error and how can I fix it? Help plz plz plz.

if you can get in safe mode, create a new user profile account to see what happens

if you don't get a desktop, launch task manager and run a new task to do whatever you gotta do
