Tom you won't believe this I just put the Windows repair disk I made in 2011 and was able to boot with that disk. Startup repair is checking the computer for problems and I think once that's done I will put in the Paragon disk and see if I can boot from that. I will get back to you shortly let me know if I should do things differently who knows what'll happen it's me.

Thanks Tom, a big bite of the famous ailment called Gout, hope you've never had it or get it, it is painful.

I cant enter any commands nor shut it down so I will take it to our computer store to salvage what programs and files I can but would you still work with me to get it up and running. If so do I need a new hard drive and what should I have the computer store do.

Not that I'm cheap, I'm just plain stubborn and hate being defeated, as for MS word it comes as a package (MS Office) and think  I will be able to get that programme from a friend.
Have a great day! Thanks again
Pete

Sorry for taking so long to reply I was away due to a heath issue.
Boggin: in boot manager it says to insert the Windows installation disc and then restart the computer but I think there is a more serious problem now that I will explain further down.

Thank you of your input as1953, it is very much appreciated but I think it is to late. I don't have any pictures or Video's to worry about and most of my personnel files have been  stored on DVD as well, thank God.

Yesterday I tried to do a PRIMARY HARD DISC SELF TEST: Here are the results:
Quick test is Executing
25% complete (still the same at 25% after 18 hrs.)
#10008-replace Hard Disc 1 Rent Test Item
Full Test is Executing
00% Complete
#10008-replace Hard Disc 1 Rent Test Item

Smart Disk
Smart hard Disk Passed
ESC     Exit

Press Escape
Hard Disk test Failed
Hard disk 1 QUICK" (3003)

Now the computer won't power off.

Sorry I couldn't do it at that time I had someone waiting for me downstairs whenever
I hit the boot options the screen shows  CD ROM boot enabled. Floppy boot enabled and turn on network adapter boot disabled
Below that it says boot order and this is highlighted in white should I hit enter on the boot order in white?

Boot option two options
Option 1 HP DVDRam GT 20 L
Option 2 WDC WD3200BEVT - 60A23T0

F10 opens in a blue screen and at the very top it says InsydelH20 setup utility  Below that it says main security diagnostic system configuration exit and it has three columns
Left column said system time system date and below that notebook mode 1 product number system board ID and the list goes on and on and on.
Center column looks like the time which is running as the list goes down it gives details about the computer as HP G60 Pentium dual-core
Right column item specific help and enter to select field.
At the bottom of the screen you can select an item selecta menu change values selecta Sub menu setup defaults save an exit and I have no idea what to do

If I shut the computer off and turn the power back on and hit the Escape key it puts me in the startup menu with four options.
Option 1 F1, system information
Option 2 F2, system Diagnostics
Option 3 F9, boot device options
Option 4 F10, bios setup
Option 5 F11 system recovery
I will leave my computer at this screen and wait for your instructions so are you take so much of your time surely I can get it right at some point.

Do I use the File Transfer Wizard now or do I need to wait until I do the clean install? MS word did come pre-installed, My computer is a HP and Joan's is a Dell but both have Windows 7.

Sorry it took me so long to get back to and yes I will do another chkdsk and then whatever you suggest. I wish I could do a back-up but when I tried before it recognised the DVD drive but wouldn't back-up. Is there a way I can get into the repair menu with the option to back-up. Will the discs your are sending me have all the programs that were on the computer when I purchased it?
Talk at you later

I sent you a reply before you did this message up and I was using the tablet and I guess it didn't post. I went to my computer, pulled the USB cable, went back to the wife's and it is working perfectly, I have no idea why I was using a USB cable other than I must be very stupid, a medication thing I doubt,  or just back from a medical thing, I honestly don't remember. Sorry to have you spend your time because seemingly I'm not to bright.
Thanks, I won't bother you unless it is a dire straight thing.
