Hello,
i need help starting up my computer it turns on and then comes up a page saying we apologize for the inconvenience but windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this.
If your computer stopped responding, restarted unexpectedly, or was automatically shut down to protect your files and folders, choose Last Known Good Configuration to revert to the most recent settings that worked.
If a previous startup attempt was interupted due to a power failure or because the power or reset button was pressed, or you aren't sure what caused the problem, choose Windows Start Normally.

Safe Mode
Safe Mode With Networking
Safe Mode With Command Prompt

Last Known Good Configuration (your most recent settings that worked)

Start Windows Normally
The thing is my sister turned on the computer and it came up to the normal start up page then it froze and she pressed the reset button. I've tried last known good configuration and start windows normally but it still doesn't work.
Can anyone help me.

Configuration: Windows XP
Internet Explorer 7.0

I'm having the same problem as well. PC has been running fine for years but we had a power outage for just a second and then it wouldn't reboot. I come to the same screen, I tried every option available, Safe Mode, Last Known, Normal, etc. It just keeps coming back to this screen. Any ideas b4 I put the HD into another PC to pull its info.?
