What file is corrupt? What "Window" are you trying to delete? I would try a System Restore to a point before the problem started.

Life is more painless for those who are brainless.

Does it say SAFE MODE? or is it possible that you messed up the video drivers & the display is defaulting to 640x480x16 colors? Like this guy did:

I still don't know exactly what you're trying to do. Are you trying to completely erase the hard drive (format) & start from scratch with a fresh installation of Windows? Are you trying to repair Windows by doing an "over the top" reinstall?

If you're trying to delete just the Windows folder & then reinstall Windows again, you can't delete it from Windows...you have to do it from DOS.
