Hi. I need help. I am gettig the "black screen of death" thing and nothing works: CTRL+ALT+DEL/ESCAPE; Lshift 5 times, my sticky keys shortcut is disabled. Anyway, I went to repair your computer, started command prompt, wrote regedit, went to Export and changed file type to all files. There was a Local disk D with all files in it, Local disk E also with all files, Local disk X:BOOT with some files inside it, but Local disk C was TOTALLY empty. I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate. When I boot my laptop it also shows 2 Windows. They are both Windows 7. The first one shows a blue screen with something like "error, the pc will be shut down to prevent damage" but nvm. The second one has this problem. Please respond if you know and thanks.

PS: It wont load none of my Windows 7 installation discs.

    CTRL+ALT+DEL/ESCAPE; Lshift 5 times, my sticky keys shortcut is disabled.

    -> What exactly were you trying to achieve with this? Did you perhaps play with sethc.exe?

    Wrote regedit, went to Export and changed file type to all files.

    -> What did you export, and why?

    There was a Local disk D with all files in it, Local disk E also with all files, Local disk X:BOOT with some files inside it, but Local disk C was TOTALLY empty.

    -> While in Windows Repair Mode, the drive letters are all different. What you see as C: could be E: in normal mode. Drive X: is a virtual drive that exists in Repair Mode only.

    The first one shows a blue screen with something like "error, the pc will be shut down to prevent damage" but nvm.

    -> NVM?

    PS: It wont load none of my Windows 7 installation discs.

    -> Did you set the BIOS to make the CD drive the primary boot device?

    -> What happened prior to things going wrong?

    -> Did you try System Restore while in Repair Mode?
