Also you could try formatting the flash drive you are using, then download FRST to it and try again.

I'm not sure if it's 32 or 64 so I down loaded both as per the instructions.
If you are not sure, yes do try them both, but try them separately i.e. one at a time by itself on the flash drive.
Try the 32-bit one first.
To format your USB stick follow the instructions at the link below:

Tell me how you get on.
We do have other options but this one would be the best if we can make it work.

This is a way to access your computer using a disk we will create.
Before starting you might like to print these instruction out so that you know what you are doing
- Download OTLPE.iso and save it somewhere you can get it.
- Insert a writable blank CD/DVD in your CD drive and click on the OTPLE.iso to burn a CD. NOTE:
- Reboot your infected system using the boot CD you just created.
- The CD needs to detect your hardware and load the operating system...can take a bit of time, just be patient
- Your system should now display a Reatogo desktop.
Note : as you are running from CD it is not exactly speedy - Double-click on the OTLPE icon.
- Select the Windows folder of the infected drive if it asks for a location
- If asked "Do you wish to load the remote registry", select Yes
- If asked "Do you wish to load remote user profile(s) for scanning", select Yes
- Ensure the box "Automatically Load All Remaining Users" is checked and press OK
- OTL should now start.
- Press Run Scan to start the scan.
- When finished, the file will be saved in drive C:\OTL.txt
- Copy this file to your USB drive if you do not have internet connection on this system.
- Right click the file and select send to : select the USB drive.
- Confirm that it has copied to the USB drive by selecting it
- You can backup any files that you wish from this OS
- Please post the contents of the C:\OTL.txt file in your reply.

Just as a note at that screen where it hangs up I also have a warning box entitled RecEnv - Corrupt File and described it as D:\Windows\System32\csrss.exe is corrupt and unreadable. Not sure if that is common with the normal error loop you have seen.

I tried changing the boot order making the CD first but that didn't seem to help
Hmm... I don't know what is going on there. You should be booting to the Reatgo desktop per instructions. That would allow us to access your computer and data. It is a good way to back up things when your computer won't boot normally. It would also allow us to carry out actions to remove malware or fix other problems.
Maybe a bad burn or corrupt download... don't really know.
OKAY not sure what happened but I have accessed the Lenovo Rescue and Recovery page...I have a couple options available to "rescue files" or "full restore" I wont touch anything until I hear back...
I am not familiar with the rescue feature on Lenova (even though I have a Lenova thinkpad myself lol). Might allow you to access and backup your data or maybe fix corrupt files...
I found this, see link below:

I don't know what version you have but maybe you can download the instructions and they will be a help to you.
My guess would be that the full restore will remove all your data which would then be lost but you need to check it out.

I reburnt the CD and it did boot from it starting to load the Reatogo - X-PE once the status bar is complete it attempts to load the Windows screen and then gives me the blue screen error of "a problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent further damage"
