Windows startup problem?
The last moments of using my computer, I installed an application I downloaded online, and then opened the application's setup a second time. Then my computer immediately shut off. (As in cut power, it did not shutdown)
At this point I was alarmed, but not convinced anything was wrong. But when I started my computer back up it automatically went into "System Recovery" mode and gave me the "Loading system files" page and then it started doing the "Startup recovery" tool that seems to be useless. Since it takes a while, I did not want to wait so I manually restarted the computer.
Now even if I select "Normal startup" in the f8 options, it begins with the normal W7 load screen, but then switches to the "Loading system files" page, and boots into recovery mode. If I select safe mode, it loads the first couple files up to CLFS.sys and then the "Loading system files" screen pops up.
I have tried lots of cmd commands from within recovery mode but nothing changes it.
In short, normal startup and safe mode start to load but switch to and load Windows 7 Recovery instead.
Windows 7 Recovery boots up fine, but I have not been able to use it to reverse this. Can anyone help with this loop?

My professor assigned a paper in which I have to include a citation for pages 358-366 of Rules for writers by Diana Hacker. She is very specific about citations and I was hoping to make sure I chose the correct format. It is a chapter in a handbook. What format do I use? Thanks
1 AnswerBooks & Authors1 decade agoGood sealant for water heater?
I have a small electric water heater and I am connecting the In and Out lines with the water supply. I have tried using teflon tape but that is not thick enough and the joint does not feel secure. I also have a paste that I have used for a gas line but it can be a little drippy before it dries. Could it damage the water heater?

5 AnswersSecurity1 decade agoi7 920 overclocking on Asrock x58 Extreme?
I have 6gb Kingston ddr3 2000 ram. It works fine at this frequency, i can also go over 2000 easily. My processor i can stable up to 4.4ghz in this board, Prime stable. Now i try to put the two together and fail. (CPU OC done with lowest possible memfreq) I know there has to be a relationship between QPI and MEM multipliers. What is it, and how do i use it on an Asrock x58? I have a dropdown list for memory frequencies, but no multiplier setting. So i cannot actually know what multipliers i am using for QPI or for Mem freq.
