Hey. I'm in serious problems, I was in a game (Warcraft) I minimized to put some music on (never got that far) Suddenly computer froze, and didn't react to any of my actions. So i had to hold the power button until it shut down. When i started it up again everything seemed fine at the beginning all the way until
[Windows is Loading - - - - - -]
--- BLUESCREEN ----
So i put in recovery/repair CD (120 MB one) and boot from CD. Windows Memory Diagnostic tool, System Restore, Start up Repair, none of them works.
So i did some digging, Tried to Load Drives (only Harddrive D were responding, where i keep my movies)
harddrive C where i got windows and some pictures i really need didn't respond at all, size: 0 bytes, free: 0 bytes, etc....
Could anyone help me?
Edit: Windows Vista, Safe mode does not work either.

Can you give us the blue screen error message?
Have you tried getting into safe mode?
When was the last time you blew your computer out, with a can of compressed air?

Edited my first post before you wrote, Saying it doesn't work in safe mode either. It just hangs up there...
And I've uhm, never actually cleaned my computer inside. Or i did like 8 months ago using a vacuum cleaner.
And the bluescreen goes so quick, it comes and then in some milliseconds the computer is rebooting. I'll see if i can look.

That's a very bad idea.
You can fry your motherboard doing that!
Tap F8 as your computer is booting up to access the advanced start-up screen. Choose "Disable Restarts on System Failure". That will allow you to see the blue screen message.
Write it down and post back with it.
