Also, this behaviour could mean that your hard drive is on it's way out. @matt – yes, but this isn’t to say you will have the same case — chkdsk runs when there is data corruption, doesn’t mean it will save all of your data.

However, when I press f8 when my computer is booting, I can boot in repair mode. In this mode, i have to choose an account to log in. The choices I have are "homegroupuser$" and "Utilisateur" (french for "user" - I use a french version of windows). The problem is : i don't have a password for any of these accounts. I am the only user on my computer, my user name is "Catherine". When I type my regular password to try to log in under "homegroupuser$" or "Utilisateur", it doesn't word. When i leave the password space blank, it doesn't work. When i try typing "nopassword" (something i've seen on a forum), it doesn't work. Any advice?

What options come up when you insert the DVD and boot from the DVD? @Dave S – Did you try to run aforementioned tools on the upgrade disk from boot or from within the OS?
