System files may be damaged.
In Windows 7, use recovery media to scan hard drive for errors, or
use Windows Startup Repair to fix problems that might prevent
Windows from starting correctly. Windows Startup Repair is one
of the recovery tools in the System Recovery Options menu. You
can also create a system repair disc that contains the System
Recovery Options menu. If the problem is severe enough that
Startup Repair doesn't start on its own and you can't access the
System Recovery Options menu on your computer's hard disk,
you can get to the menu and start Startup Repair by using the
Windows installation disc or a system repair disc that you created
earlier.
In Windows 8, use Automatic Repair to fix problems that might
prevent Windows from starting correctly.
