Well, I have done worse to get something working . I'm not sure if this would work, but have you gone to Windows Update lately? There is an update regarding that issue (system recovering from error prompt at boot time), and there might be some other issues as well that could be helped out with some of the updates.
Ill look into that,thx again pal.expecially for such a quick response
