    Have you tried starting Windows in Safe Mode to see if you can get a better error message, or see if it will start? Press F8 before the Windows logo screen appears to get a menu, and select Start in Safe Mode.

    Have you checked in the BIOS to see if all your hardware is being detected properly? You can do this by pressing a specific key (sometimes Delete, sometimes one of the F keys - it should say when you see your computers manufacturer's screen).

    What make and model of computer do you have? What version of Windows do you have?
