format and start over? :-P
i assume youve tried stuff like safe mode? or does it not even get that far?

It didn't get that far, windows just told me that it can't start, and the startup recovery didn't even start.
Tho, I fixed it now, by removing all but 1 stick of RAM, then I started it, shut down, put back all RAM, and now it works as it should again :s

In cases like these, sometimes an eraser to the pins of a RAM card really solves a lot of issues.

right , you can try to start with memory first , before going for HDD problems, HDD problems would sometimes make a sound. Random BSOD's are most likely caused by memory sticks and incompatible memory sticks
