okay so i was using my computer fine in the morning, no problems at all. once i was done i selected to shut it down and as the process began i went over to the plug socket on the wall to switch the computer off at the mains once shutdown was complete, accidentally i hit the switch a bit too early and cut the power before the shutdown process was complete. i didnt think anything of it as ive done it before by mistake.
now (the same day) when i try and start up the computer, i get all the way through to logging in, but just after i log into windows i get a blue screen with a long error message on it. sometime it appears instantly and sometimes i get an extremely brief view of the desktop and half the 'startup sound' plays before i get the screen. it is only displayed for 2 seconds at most and so i cannot tell you exactly what is says but i can give you the general jist of it:
windows has not started because something is wrong and it is trying to prevent any more damage being done
it questions how much disk space ive got remaining
it wonders about video adapters and about updating the bios
it suggests safe mode.
could this be to do with me being clumsy and cutting the power too soon or something else?
im by no means a novice with computers but i really need some guidance here so please any help will be welcomed
thanks.
