Big problem with Vista:(

Hi,
When i start up my vista has problems loading things and can pause. Yet sometimes it lets you log on, but when you log after 20 seconds it can freeze(but the arrow moves around the screen). I can get on safe mode perfectly(I am using now). This is the second time it happened, and the 1st time i had to format, and i am not willing to do that again.
If you have any questions for more details please ask.
Thanks, Lee

I have a friend who had a similar problem, and she had to hand her laptop into the shop to get fixed
