Try to restart it by loading the boot up options. Restart it and press F8 several times til you get as screen with several options on it. You should be able to see there several options. Safemode, Safemode with networking, last known good configuration.. etc. select one and if it still doesn't work try another one.
If this still fails, you might want to go dive and check into your hardware.

Hi Edzornam,
Before attempting to do anything drastic like reinstalling windows, remove any external storage devices first if there's any (e.g. flash drives, external hdd, sd cards and disc in the dvd drive) then restart the computer again. If nogo, try removing other usb devices except for the mouse and keyboard and try restarting. Hope this helps.
