Once i figred out problem, i deleted all but one copy of windows and i got back tons of space, BUT it was was deleting and such it popped up warnings sayin that delting certain fels might harm pc, i took a chance anyway becuae who needs that many copies taking up space right? all was workiong well until. Everythign was runnign fast and new, had more free space and ram left. well, this morning i go to start it up and it wont boot up, it poppedup somehtring called "start up r epar" and then it went to blue screen and said something. h mph. i tired to repair it but ti said it cannot repair automstically. what do i do?

If you have no data to lose on the drive, try doing another fresh install of Windows, but this time, go into advanced drive options and delete all the current partitions (this option comes up when it asks you what partition to install Windows on). This will give you a truly fresh install of Windows.

Be careful with this because if you have a Recovery Partition on your system and no recovery disks you will not be able to recover your system.
