Have you tried Safe Mode? Keep tapping F8 during boot until you see the
boot menu - then choose Safe Mode. If you can boot to Safe Mode maybe
all is not lost. You can run a checkdisk, or System File Checker from
safe mode, or check Device Manager for any problem hardware.
The Admin password is blank by default. Unless you've created an admin
password in windows, you should just be able to press Enter and keep
going to the Recovery Console.
Good luck,
Donk
