DemolitionSquid Requires Computer Help

[DemolitionSquid]

So the computer is having trouble even loading in safe mode. Ugh.

Put the Operating System cd in, Restart the computer, hit F8 before it starts up, and there should be a Startup Repair option. Choose that.

From there, there's a check that should automatically attempt to detect problems, and if all else fails, there's the option to open a Command prompt, Switch to the C drive, by hitting- C:\ , and then try running SFC /scannow.

This video should cure your computer.

Seriously though, just fry your computer and start over.

Enter setup and check temperatures there.
If you're overclocking, no need to say you put everything back to normal speeds.

Other things to check:
- Run a disk check of the entire surface
- Let memtest86+ run, say, 10 passes.

Yeah, if you computer is having trouble in safe mode, its time to reformat.

Is your computer custom built or did you get it from a manufacturer like dell or HP?

If you got it from one of the big manufacturers, you might not need the OS reinstall CD. The big manufacturers put a "factory default" feature on certain desktops. If your PC is one of these there's a key you can press at the splash screen (its usually f11, but might be different for some) to activate it.
