ok I changed the bios setting to default and got the screen for entering Safe Mode

Clicked on Safe Mode and it starts loading a list of files then it goes to that "configuring updates Stage 3 of 3- 0% do not turn off your computer.

then laptop restarts itself

OK that is Good (believe it or not)

Insert the CD for the recovery console
Reboot and Immediately press F8
Then press any key to install the recovery console

Could you try the USB with OTLPE on it and with FRST we can either restore the system or remove any bad drivers

[TheTorment]

options:
safe mode
safe mode with networking
safe mode with command prompt

sorry I dont follow

do I leave cd in and insert the usb?

do I have to change anything else?

[Essexboy]

Apologies, insert the USB
Reboot the computer
Press and hold F8 until you get the press any key prompt
Then press a key and see if the USB loads

If that fails then try Safe mode with Command prompt

[TheTorment]

[TheTorment]

safe mode with command prompt got me to the "configuring updates: stage 3 of 3- 0% complete" and restarted
