My computer wouldn't start. I have a blue screen error stop:0x00007B(0x..., 0xc.., 0x0..., 0x..0)(I am not sure about the 4 parameters inside the barcket), then inaccessible_boot_device.Then I am adviced among other things to clean viruses. But I can't make it start!
What can I do? I have a life DATA on this computer. All I did lately is to download some free software for CD burner. Also, i downloaded a free trial of REGcure.
I can;t start in safe mode or any other mode!I tried few things, removing the hard drive for the CD-ROM and the the floopy disk. DIDN't help.
Thanks in advance if you can help.

"i downloaded a free trial of REGcure".

From the name of that app I would guess it is a registry cleaner. Did you install and run it?

What is a life DATA?

Stop 7b "generally" indicates a hardware malfunction and I suspect your hard drive has failed or is failing.

In your post you mention "life DATA", I assume your mean "live DATA" which has not been backed up. Time to do that now before attempting any system recovery procedures. This can be achieved by installing your current hard drive on another pc either as a slave or external mass storage device using an appropriate adapter.

Good luck
