If its not letting you go through recovery mode or safe mode, I honestly
have no idea what would be an alternative to getting back into windows
without fully reinstalling the system. However, if you have another
computer, you can either take the hard drive out and install it temporarily
into that computer so you don't lose any data. This would be the best course
of action in my opinion...
Best of luck

HELP! I Used my computer last night, 11-14-2007, just fine. Left it on
overnight and this morning my PC was trying to "fix" itself due to MS
weapon
of mass distruction installed around 3 AM Pacific time. My PC will NOT
boot
up at all. Now when I try to reboot, I get "System Recovery Options" then
it
tries over and over to fix my computer but it will not boot. Then it
tells
me that "Startup Repair cannot repair this computer automatically." When
I
look at the "Diagnosis and repair details" it says everything is OK except
for one thing: "Root cause found: Startup repair has tried several times
but
still cannot determine the cause of the problem." Very helpful. Then I
try
to execute the "View advanced options for system recovery and support" and
have several options including System Restore which I have tried 3
different
restore points with no luck. After restart, it just loops and loops
around
the System recovery processes in vain. I have tried booting from the
Vista
disk and it has two options...install and repair. When I choose repair,
it
goes through, again, what I describe above. I really don't want to have
to
nuke the PC and reinstall Windows but at this point I can't even get into
Windows - not even via Safe Mode - to at least copy my files to a flash
drive
so I'm at a loss. If anyone has an idea of what I can do, please let me
know
soon so I can take the appropriate action. Thanks everyone.
