    It freezes even if you try safe mode? You are letting safe mode load up to Windows yes?

    It may come to you needing to reinstall your OS.

    Did your anti virus expire? Because if you pull your internet supply out of the PC itself, EG: ethernet/wireless dongle.. You then can reset your BIOS time, back to a date when you still had time left on it..

    I've did that before when my windows xp activation period expired, it may be the same principle.

    Your OS might be corrupt. It might be worth reinstalling.
    If you have Windows 7, it moves all your old files to a folder called 'Windows.old' so you don't have to worry about losing anything.

    Sounds like you'll have to reinstall your OS then, you can get a Windows set up disk and boot up off that, normally you can select the boot device on the BIOS load screen. For me it's F12 but for others it can be F2 or F8.

    Depending on where you get your PC from you may have a Windows set up disk from when you first got it.
