I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 which just BSOD'd for the third time in the past two weeks. I try to turn it on and now it gets stuck at this screen. (Picture attached). Please is there anything I can do to get my computer to work.
If tried to boot in safe mode, it stays on the same screen too. While loading windows files, it stops at "\windows\system32\drivers\crcdisk.sys"

Thank you.

Being stuck on crcdisk.sys file may indicate hard drive problem.

Run hard drive diagnostics: http://www.tacktech....ay.cfm?ttid=287
Make sure, you select tool, which is appropriate for the brand of your hard drive.
Depending on the program, it'll create bootable floppy, or bootable CD.
If downloaded file is of .iso type, use ImgBurn: http://www.imgburn.com/ to burn .iso file to a CD (select "Write image file to disc" option), and make the CD bootable.

NOTE. If your hard drive is made by Toshiba, unfortunately, you're out of luck, because Toshiba doesn't provide any diagnostic tool.
