I was updating to the newest version of Nero, and after installing it rebooted automatically. It booted to the logo screen then gave me a bunch of errors about system files being corrupted and before I new it the blue screen hit me.

I can boot to my other harddrive which is running Windows 7 and everything works fine. I've scanned my C drive for viruses, I came up with a few infections but nothing major. HijackThis log looked fairly clean. I didn't have any restore points though, I've stopped different services, I can boot into safe mode, so I know it something, but for the life of me I can't figure out what. I also uninstalled Nero.

Nevermind, fixed the problem after reading my dump file. Turns out it was one of my krnl.exe files. Simple Windows Repair Disc fixed the solution. Phew.
