computer crashing
My computer is out of it's mind! I know nothing about computers, but it's a dell. About a week ago, out of NOWHERE, it decided it would stop working. It turns on normally, but then goes to a black page where it says "we apologize for the inconvenience, but windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this..etc.." It either freezes on that page, or shuts itself down, then restarts, and does the same thing over and over and OVER. It's driving me insane. What have I done to it? What could be the problem??

there several problems that might happen:
1. Your PC experience a sudden shock that made the hardware inside loose (can be caused by falling from the table etc)
2. Too many dust and other 'Things' that might disturbed the detection process and the coordination of each hardware inside the PC ( mostly causing the airflow inside the PC is abnormal)
3. the condition 1 (1st) made the windows system data in the harddisk corrupt
4. Sudden electricity shutdown or thunder strike or anything that can caused the electromagnetic wave made your PC uanble to boot!
5. malware or viruses that cause the windows system data corrupt
6. installment of new software or hardware [mostly hardware] that is not correct ex; untight or loose
Mostly this kinds of damages has various way to inspect and fix, depends on the symptoms that occur, but you can try one of the following [make sure you know what you are doing due to electric shock might happen!]
1. hardware inspection:
-check the plug in the rear PC casing, from keyboard plug to vga / monitor plug then if its tight enough try to turn it on
2. software:
-turn on/press delete or F2/finds boot option and choose cdrom/ insert windows cd/ save and exit/ follow the instructon untill the repair option is appear! then the win Xp or whatever windows cd that you use will repair the Pc automatically good as new!
Glad to help!

My computer did the exact same thing! As weird as it may sound, when it was in the process of loading up that dreadful black screen I just kept hitting F1 then if nothing happened I'd restart the computer again and keep hitting F2 and so on and so forth. Finally, for my computer, the lucky number was F7 and it pulled up a different window to reinstall Windows and it's been fine ever since. Maybe you could call a computer tech and tell them whats going on with it and they can probably give you a better idea of what the problem is, since it may not be windows.
OR BETTER YET, ask *DangerNerd* on this website. He's a computer tech so he would probably be able to help you more than anyone else could. Good Luck!
