I got blue screen of death
Now computer not responding at all
Just freaking great!
...
 
i haven't seen one of those in years. what kind of machine is it and what version of windows is it running?

be more specific about 'it doesn't respond at all'

does it post the CMOS and give you a command prompt or does it boot all the way to the desktop and then not give you any keyboard and mouse?

a lot of times the easiest thing to do will be to reformat the hard drive and reinstall the windows if you can't get the windows to repair itself.
 
Did you just install a new program or a piece of hardware, update a driver, install an update, etc.?

Have you tried unplugging the computer and plugging it back in?
 
Maybe you should save some money for a new computer. I got my laptop for about $400 USD off Best Buy.

it's not posting at all. what happens if you press F8 while it's trying to boot? you may get lucky if you clear the CMOS by yanking the battery for a day or two. do you have a system recovery disc?
