Every time I boot up my cpu it says TFGHT is compressed press Ctrl+Alt+Del. It started after I compressed my C: drive, now I am unable to boot up any cd/dvd or enter safe mode only BIOS. Please help solve.

Here is a method I picked up from some other thread:

  1. Start your computer from the Windows 7 installation DVD or Repair CD.
  2. Select Repair your computer.
  3. Load driver.
  4. Go to Computer and right click drive where Windows 7 is installed.
  5. Select Properties and uncheck "Compress drive to save disk space".
  6. Close and restart the computer normally.

    SO the easiest way to fix this problem is to boot into Mini Win xp using Hirens boot cd or other method. Locate the C:/ Drive - Right Click Properties- uncheck the box that says compress to save disk space make sure you include all sub folders, then restart. You are getting this error because some how the whole C;/ Drive where windows is installed was compressed .
