Hi Kumar,

Please try the following troubleshooting:

  1. Press Ctrl+Alt+Del
  2. Do a left click on the power option at the bottom right of the screen
  3. Press and hold down the 'Shift' Key and do a left click on Restart, you should be seeing 'Please Wait'
  4. Click on Troubleshoot=> Advance Options=> StartUp Settings=> Restart
  5. Post Restart the same Blue Screen will appear with a list options, once have that screen in front of you, push the 'Number 5' on your Keyboard, in a couple of seconds you should be in 'Safe Mode with Networking'
  6. Go to Control Panel=> Programs and Features, scroll down and look for "Search Protect"..
  7. Uninstall "Search Protect" and then perform a Clean Boot
  8. After you have performed a Clean Boot, you should be able to boot to the desktop...

I Hope it Helps...Please revert for any further questions...

    I read in another forum a solution that worked for someone with this problem.

    1. Go to the login screen. DO NOT login yet.
    2. Hold down the shift key and click the power icon and select restart. Hold down the shift key throughout that whole process. (This will restart your computer and bring up a menu that offers services for Windows.)
    3. Click 'Troubleshoot'
    4. Click 'Advanced Options'
    5. Click 'Automatic Repair'

    Windows will attempt to fix the problem.

    If this doesn't work, in that same menu there are reset and refresh options. If you are unsure of the difference, try refresh first.

    Hope this works!

    I had to have a new keyboard put on my dell inspiron 17 and now I am blocked out of the computer. It will not accept my password, which I have not changed. Dell is no help at all

     Will not even give me the master bios.if that is the problem. All I get is a blak screen with enter password in blue box and then password is not recognized. What has happened. ? Dell wants to blame Windows.
