OK this is my problem, when I go to boot up I get a
screen with an error message stating that "Windows could
not start because of a computer hardware configuration
problem."
I have since found that what used to be my C drive (boot
drive) is now labelled D and my D drive is now C, hence
it will not boot.
How do I change the D drive back to C drive or change the
boot file to D instead of C so it will boot.
Thank you in advance for all your assistance.
