:?: when i boot up my keyboard and mouse work fine, as soon as windows opens they both freeze and i can not do anything. also cd rom wont read so i cant reinstall windows. im a bit thick so please...

Hi

when did the problems start. Did you install something?
Try using Safe Mode by pressing F8 when you pc restarts.

now restore your computer to a point that it was working properly using the following

Click start > all programs > accessories > system tool > system restore

Follow on screen prompts

System will reboot by its self

hi darren
thanks for replying but i have tried this and still the same.
this all started when my dvd rw stopped reading anything and a help page advised i went into to registry and deleted this {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} when i did this my computer rebooted then froze.

sorted got a new cdrom and managed to install windows again.
