Hi,
I'm hoping you may be able to help me out. My home laptop appears to be corrupted in some way. It's a Dell.
For some reason when I rebooted it, it just hangs. The cursor is 'the arrow' when in the center of the screen but when I place it on the toolbar it changes to rotating as if it is doing something. I can reboot in safe mode with the 'C:windows\system32: prompt but I'm at a loss after that.

Any ideas what may be the problem?

Cheers,
Tom.
