My laptop kept freezing on the windows sign when loading up and when i would turn it off after it wouldnt work, after about the 5th time i tried it, then the message came up. I have been using Youtube convertor of late.

My laptop is a HP and got Windows 7 if thats any help?

there is the old it saying of turn it off and back on again unfortunatly this doesnt do the boot system any good have you tried opening in safe mode? it could be a virus that caused you pc to freeze in the first place or if it may even be your hard drive dying try safe mode first

restart your laptop and keep pressing f8 should then start in safe mode and you should then have a menu option to start in last known configuration select that option

I had a similar problem!
Came up with continue normally and Start up repair

When I chose continue normally it used to take me back
My only option start up repair but it didn't work
Found out that I had a Hard Drive failure and all my data was wiped:(

Hopefully not the same problem here mate!
