Windows error recovery - Dell Studio

When starting up, a black screen comes up with windows error recovery with the options to launch startup repair or start windows normally.  Each option takes me back to the same page.  When I hit F8  to repair your  computer, I am taken back to the windows error recovery screen again.  Please help!

Start with an extended hard drive diagnostic - F12 at powerup.   Boot to the Dell diagnostics and run the quick test.  Then boot to to the full diagnostics and run an extended hard drive test (will take a couple of hours).

See if you can do a system restore to an earlier time when the problem hadn't occured through f12, i think this failed for me, I spent hours on end searching the web for a solution but couldn't find any that worked! tried PC world and they were going to charge a bomb!

In then end I had to re-install windows!

I really hope you can find a solution soon

good luck
