    Preparing Windows


    Last week I received a message that my computer needed to restart. When I left on Friday, after I logged out, I set it to restart. This morning and in fact all day I’ve not been able to use my computer. I have restarted it at least 5 times and now it’s just spinning at preparing windows. Help! I have a deadline tomorrow.

    :)
