boot

Hi, my Dell Inspiron laptop recently crashed and on the boot screen, no matter what option I select, it shows an error message which states the failure to start up and says I may attempt to resolve the problem by reinstalling Windows. My question is that if I am to reinstall Windows, will there be any data loss or should I find another method of reparation? Thanks.

re-installation of Windows may lead to data loss. nothing is safe until backed up.

try this method and may be it will work for you...
