Most often its the drivers for the hardware.
If you have plugged in any new USB or other devices recently, unplug them. Try turning the PC on with just the keyboard, maybe the mouse, power and video cables plugged in. First try booting to Safe Mode (press F8 repeatedly after turning the PC on until you see it). If that works, try booting normally. It would also help to know the error...either the code or the text of it. eg IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. |
