Now you know why we say, again and again, that registry cleaners are
unnecessary and dangerous.

You are also discovering why we say, again and again, how important it
is to backup.

Two lessons learned the hard way. Do yourself a favor: Learn from your
mistakes.

Since you admit to knowing nothing about fixing computers, your wisest
course of action is to show your computer to a professional. Don't try
to fix it on your own.

I updated my Eusing Free Registry Cleaner and once completed it said
to restart my computer. I did the restart and now it won't let me go
pass the black f8 screen. It just keeps looping back to it. I tried
all options (start windows normally-safe mode-last known working
config., safemode w/command etc.) to restart windows and it don't
work. I then tried to do a system recovery and it says
error2:c:\mining\system32\restore.log.missing. Then I tried with the
recovery disk and it said corrupt or missing please reinstall
\system32\ntoskrnl.exe. I know nothing about fixing computers and have
no clue why this happened. Please help???
