    Hi when you boot the machine what message do you get?

    have you tried booting into safe mode

    After the memory test, the words "Starting Windows" will appear on a black background. When this happens, press and hold the F8 key. This will present a screen with the following options to choose from.

    Safe Mode:

    Safe Mode with Networking:

    Safe Mode with Command Prompt:

    Last Known Good Configuration:

    try safe mode it will launch windows with the least amount of programmes
