My gateway computer will not start at all. I will turn it on and it always takes to the "safe mode.../start windows normally mode" screen.

I've tried selecting every available option but it continues to restart then it takes me back to the same screen. What am i suppose to do here? how do i fix this? is there some i can load on startup to fix disk errors or do anything at all?

thank you
 
The community section of a Mac message board is a rather odd place to ask for Gateway help, no?

Anyway, I'm not sure what you'll have to do, but I say back up all your music and photos, and just do a fresh reinstall like others have said.
 
Have you got another PC lying around? If you have, try sticking in the HDD from the Gateway in the other PC as a slave, and back up as much as possible, then just wipe the Gateway HDD and re-install Windows.
