Hi joe, welcome to PCHF.

Some programmes have shared files. When uninstalling software, it is easy for you to select 'Yes' when asked if you would like to delete these shared files. This can sometimes be dangerous if that shared file is part of another program, driver or even part of the OS.

If you press F8 during startup, you will come to a startup menu. First of all, try using "Last Known Good Configuration". If that doesn't work, try "Safe Mode". When you enter safe mode, log on using the account "Administrator" (you'll need to remember any administrator password that was set when the PC was first set up). Are you able to get this far?

Thank you .I tried all possible steps you have mentioned ,nogo.Finally formatted c and installed afresh..Anyway lost all data in c. .Once again thank u
