If you have a PC with either Windows Vista or Windows 7 Installed and your PC has decided one day not to boot or keeps hanging, instead of taking it to be repaired try this:
Most PCs have something called a Recovery Partition which can be accessed during the boot sequence. Once you access this you can put your PC back to its factory settings (in most cases fixing the problem with windows not booting or hanging, as it deletes all the data)
How to access the recovery partition (Don't worry this is pretty straight forward)
1) Turn on your PC and keep tapping F8 (you will find F8 at the top of your keyboard)
2) After tapping F8 a few times you should see a black screen with white text, the top option should say "Repair your computer" press "Enter" to select this option.
3) Once in the recovery partition you may need to log in (if you haven't set a password just click "Next")
4) You will now see your computers recovery partition. Each PC is different but you just want to follow the steps to Recover your PC (Also known as Destructive Recovery)
From experience this option tends to be the one on the bottom on most PCs. Another thing to look out for is you computers Manufactures name on the list as this tends to take you to their custom recovery screen which is a lot easier to follow.
If either your PC does not have the option "Repair Your Computer" or does not have an option to recover your PC in the recovery partition screen, then i am afraid you may have to purchase some recovery media from your computers manufacture (that is if you have not created these already). If you have created your recovery disks then you will also be able to follow the instructions supplied with your computer to recover using the disks you have created.
