    It will not let me boot up in safe mode or anything. I get a blue screen saying windows did not startup in order to prevent damage to my computer or something like that. It goes on to say I should disable or uninstall my anti-virus, and defragmentor. Any idea what I can possible do to get this running again?

    shocker3000,

    I've moved your thread to the Windows OS and Software section. You should receive better assistance here.

    It would be helpful if we knew the exact message you are getting.

    Try booting again, and when you get the BSOD - Note down the STOP Error Code.

    Also, have you tried the Last Known Good Config Option ??
