HELP!!!!

If anyone can offer help I would be extremely helpful

I have installed an application Recboot on my Vista home premium computer

and have now got a blue screen of death

with the following eror code

0x0000008E (0xC0000005, 0x00000000, 0x8CE29A48, 0x00000000)

Have tried starting my computer in SAFE MODE to try and uninstal Recboot which I think had a hidden virus

Because it seems my keyboard has been disabled when starting the computer the numlock lights appears but when my user screen appears and asks for my password I notice the light has turned off and I am left unable to use my keyboard.

Can anyone offer me any advice help?

Thanks a lot everyone

Paul

0x0000008E: KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
(Click to consult the online MSDN article.)
A kernel mode program generated an exception which the error handler didn’t catch. These are nearly always hardware compatibility issues (which sometimes means a driver issue or a need for a BIOS upgrade).

Have you tried booting to the Advanced Boot Menu where you choose Safe Mode but instead click on Last Known Good Configuration?

  • Start your system and at the Second post screen tap on F8 to get to the Boot Menu
  • Use the Arrow Keys to Scroll down to the line that says "Last Known Good Configuration" and highlight it.
  • Click Enter to disable it
  • The system should reboot and if not then do so.
