I'm stuck on the 'Windows Resume Loader' page and it says: The last attempt to resume the system from its previous location failed. Attempt to resume again?

Then it gives me two option. 1) Continue with system resume, or 2) Delete restoration data and proceed to system boot menu.

But at this point my keyboard stops working and I cant do anything. The keyboard however works when I press DEL on start up.

I havnt made any changes recently. I just got home from work and it was like this.

I've tried enabling my keyboard in the BIOS settings.
I tried taking out the CMOS battery for a few minutes.
I unplugged my HD and plugged it back in.


A lot of others suggest going into safe mode but i cannot even access safe mode when I press f8, there's no option. I dont even have Advanced Boot Options on the menu.
I chose Windows Boot Manager instead and it told me to insert my Windows installation disc and restart my computer. When I boot from the CD I tried startup repair and system restore. Neither of which worked.
Any ideas?
