my computer was running rediculously slow. i got norton, didnt really help. didnt know what to do. then my cpu went crazy. bluescreen kept reappearing, then it kept restarting, sometimes going to the safemode screen, sometimes regularly. everytime i logged in, it repeated the process. so i got on hp help page, or whatever it is, (before windows could load i guess) and backed up all my files, then i restarted my computer back to factory condition. now after going through all the startup processes again, i cant figure out how to reload all my documents and pictures and such. i can find files, but when i open them, they are "corrupt" or i have to find a way to open it -via internet or other program- . is there an way i can get everything back to the way it was?
also, did i screw myself over in someway, or am i just stupid?
