Do you have the original operating system disk. Just reformat your entire hard drive and you will be starting from scratch. I had the same issue with a Dell and they walked me through it took about an hour to completely reformat back to factory condition
No I don't have the disk....Were you able to reformat without logging into windows?
Yes you hit one of the F* buttons on the startup screen which takes you to the boot menu and from there you have to re partition your hard drive and re install the operating system. Im not a techy or anything so i dont know the specifics as dell walked me through my issue.
Okay I'll check that out if the earlier suggestion doesn't work.
f8 or f9 usually

if you download a ubuntu Linux LIVE cd you can boot form that and save your data . http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download
then we can reformat your hard drive if you want .
