This morning when I turned on my computer, it won't load the desktop. The "log on" box comes up and I pressed OK, and then nothing happens. Just the blue (desktop colour) screen.

I tried in safe mode too, same thing happens.

It was working fine last night.

I don't know if this will help, but boot in DOS, type in:-
scanreg /restore
This should bring up previous dates when the registry was OK. Pick a date and hope for the best. This may not be the answer but it is worth a shot.
 
I got in, by booting with an EBD and running scanreg... it said it found a problem with my system files and restored it.

So I got in, but everything was changed to a previous state, and I had to reinstall some things to get them to work. But I guess that's better than not being able to use it at all!
