Please list the specs on your laptop... ie, make, model, etc. In my signature, you can download Aida32 to help you identify your specs. Also, in my signature is a link to Hijackthis. Please download Hijackthis, install and run the program. Please "ATTACH" both a start log and a scan log to your next post... DO NOT copy and paste the logs in your reply. Use the "File Attachments" feature below the posting window to attach the files.

Once System Restore is complete, you will have to restart the computer. Just let it go and see if it will start normally.

If the Restore point you chose to restore to was just yesterday, it may not help the situation.
Since System Restore will not affect your data, can you choose a Restore point, maybe a week ago, and see if it helps. Doing this may allow your computer to return to normal. Note that any programs that you have installed "after" the restore point you choose may not operate and may require reinstallation.

Don't give up, ok, we'll get this straightened out soon.
When you start up in Safe mode, is your desktop fine? Do you have any problems accessing programs? Note that all programs may not work in Safe mode.
Why don't you do this... go back into safe mode, restore the computer back to the first restore point you chose in the beginning. That way, we don't get lost and we'll have your computer at a better starting point than October.
After your computer restarts, boot again to safe mode. Go to Start/run... type in chkdsk /f then click on ok. Note the space between chkdsk and the forward slash. Windows may grumble and give you an option to run at next boot, just confirm yes. Windows will check the drive for errors and hopefully fix the problem you're experiencing.

This is what I meant when I said windows may grumble. Just have it run after restart.The type of the file system is NTFS, Cannot lock current drive. Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in useby another process. Would you like to schedule this volume to be checked the next time the system restarts? What does this mean ?
