My problem is as I turn on my computer it loads everything fine and asks me to put in the password like always to logon to my computer. But then after the load screen of the login finished it goes next and shows this error:

Title: "Windows Product Activation"
Message: "Some system files are missing or damaged. You cannot log on at this time. Please use your installation CD to reinstall or repair windows. Error code 0x80040507."

As this error is displayed I can only see my background as it was before and nothing else not even taskbar nor icons but the error you can see and only press ok on it and then it saves settings and shuts down.

I tried running in safe mode and it works but only safe mode and doesn't give me any errors, but in safe mode w/ networking it does not work.

ive done some research and many ppl say reformat but for me thats not a option because i still need my files! :( I'd appreciate it alottttttt if someone could help me thanks in advance.
