I have a Dell Demension computer and have really mucked things up i'm thinking(come to think of it thats what got me in this mess to begin with ,the thinking part=>). So i was initially dealing with the error~mfc71u.dll cannot be found.you can try reinstalling.Along with"TASK SCHEDULER Has missed some tasks,blah blah blah. and yet still a what appeared to me to be a registry error that went something like 000000.fx? not to sure on the last one there.
Moving on i reffered to msconfig to invoke the boot selections and went with safe boot with networking. After many attemps at finding a tool i could use to help i found that my cursor all of asudden upon trying to boot to the start menu of windows would seize up at the wellcome section of the boot. Now from here i went,useing the term loosely ape sh_t,trying to resolve what seemed like a simple missplacement of the usb cable attached to the little HD homeing pod with the button in the middle,atriangular plastic device. So now here i am,befuddled once again. If anyone can help me with this i would be forever gratefull.I saw where "Patio" helped someone with a somewhat similar predicament,but don't let that hold you back,please.
Thank you once again;Sincerely
