HI there,
These are my laptop config's [ 160 GB HDD, 1GB Ram, Win xp prof, Dual core] and i do have an active Internet broadband Connection.
The primary use of the laptop is for entertainment.

It was working well till last night.

I use kaspersky antivirus software and I used to update it frequently.
The issue started like this, Once the lappie is turned on, it shows the options for 1) safe mode 2) safe mode with networking enabled
3) start windows normally.
IF we go for the 3rd option, it goes till windows logo and come back to the same options.
if we go with first option , it displays some list of drivers and there is no possible way from there.
And I havent tried the other options out there.
The CD drive also not able to open.
Now I dont know, How to go from here

please some one help!!

One more quick question?
I came to know that, Linux os will not be user friendly and cannot be used
for entertainment.
Is it so?
Please help!!
