well, it's not like i never was able to get into the
desktop. i built the computer about 1 year ago and
everything was fine until a few days ago, when i was on
the computer. it froze and i manually rebooted the
computer. since then, i'm not able to get past
that "starting windows" blue screen into my desktop.
