Windows Media Server no longer working
Shane:
You could always try a repair install as well :wink:

Here are the 2 services. I removed any keys that are meant for my system only. That way no problems should happen.
Also shared access service (The internet connection sharing) depends on WMI. Make sure you ran my WMI repair tool :wink:

Ok, so I'm totally screwed now. Before your last post, I decided to install and run Microsoft Security Essentials. After taking 3 hours to run, it found many problems and the system needed to be rebooted......
Now, windows won't even load. On boot up, System repair loads and tries to find out what's wrong with the system. It ends up not being able to find a solution, and therefore, Windows will not load. I've got no windows OS cd that came with the computer and I am at a complete loss on what to do. There are options for backing up important information to USB drives (which I have no external hard drives), and possibly the ability to restore the computer to factory settings, but I'm assuming that this would delete all of my files, and I just can't allow that to happen (I've got many pictures of my new born child on that computer that I just can't afford to lose).
Sorry to drop this bombshell on you, but do you have any advise? I can't live without that computer, I run my business off of it. Do you know of any windows repair bootdiscs that I could try or anything? My wife is going to kill me.....
Shane:
No worries. I run a computer repair business so I run into this alot. Your files will be fine. But let this be a listen to keep backups :wink:
First off are you able to boot into safe mode by any chance?
Shane
Allen:
Thank you so much man, I'm seriously freaking out here (to the point of feeling physically ill lol). I can't seem to boot into safe mode, when starting the comp, first thing that pops up is the Dell boot screen (allowing one to click f2 for setup or f12 for bios), then it goes to the Windows loading screen, and appears to try and load. Then a beeping noise comes from the laptop, and it goes to a black screen. Then the screen pops up for if I'd like to run system repair or try to run windows normally. If I click to try to run windows normally, it just repeats the same process until it goes back to that same screen.
Shane:
Next time choose start windows normally. As soon as you hit enter start hitting the F8 key. This should bring up the boot menu for Windows.
From there see if you can get into safe mode.
Your system is blue screening and it is set to auto reboot. If we are lucky we can get into safe mode and get it fixed. If not then we will work on hunting down a Windows 7 disk. From there we can either do a repair reinstall or a normal install. When and if we do a normal reinstall the trick is to NOT format the drive. Windows will say there is already a version of windows on here. When you continue it will move all your old files to Windows.old folder. There your old profile, with all your pictures will be waiting.
SO no matter what you will be fine. just make sure to not format anything!
First lets see if we can avoid the reinstall. Try safe mode :wink:
