Have you installed any new hardware or software after which the problem started occuring.  You can probably try using the Safe Mode booting option to verify it.  In order to boot into the safe mode, follow the steps mentioned below:\n\n1.Restart your computer and start pressing the F8 key on your keyboard. On a computer that is configured for booting to multiple operating systems, you can press the F8 key when you the Boot Menu appears.\n2.Select an option when the Windows Advanced Options menu appears, and then press ENTER.\n3.When the Boot menu appears again, and the words "Safe Mode" appear in blue at the bottom, select the installation that you want to start, and then press ENTER.\n\nAfter booting into the safe mode, uninstall any new software that you may have installed or revert the system to the last stable operating point using the System Restore feature (Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore.\n\nIf you are unable to boot in the safe mode, probably there is some hardware issue.  Check whether the computer fans are working.  Open the computer cabinet and check if there is any dust or dirt clogged in the fan.  Switch off the computer and try cleaning it.  If nothing works, call tech support for your computer manufacturer.

Should start automatically but if you know when it stopped doing it roughly then you could do a system restore to a point just before you had problems.

This is not for a regular user, but if you are brave enough, do this.\n\n1 turn off your computer.\n2 turn it on again, but be prepared, you must hit the "delete" key if is a generic PC, if is a Brand PC should be F1 or F10 key, If you nave your manuals check what is the BIOS set up key, you must hit that key before any operating system start to work, otherwise will not work, so just when turn it on you keep hitting on the key until the bios set up appears.\n\n3 browse in the setup options and find the auto disk detection menu, and put it to work.\n\nIf the bios do not detect the unit, is because is not connected right, and need to be reconnected, or check for a damaged cable.\n\nthen if is detected, just save the changes on the BIOS, and exit the setup program.\n\nit will restart again and work OK.\n\nbut if you keep having that trouble often, it means that is not installed the right way, or the cable has some bad connection.

keep hitting F8 when it boots up.  it'll boot up in safe mode.  you can get out of safe mode with the main screen, it's self explanatory when you see it.

What happens when you try to start it? do you get any error messages? Without more info the only thing I can suggest is to run setup and select repair.

You can try defragging it in the safe mode.  To use a Safe Boot option, follow these steps: \n\n1.Restart your computer and start pressing the F8 key on your keyboard. On a computer that is configured for booting to multiple operating systems, you can press the F8 key when you the Boot Menu appears.\n\n2.Select an option when the Windows Advanced Options menu appears, and then press ENTER.\n\n3.When the Boot menu appears again, and the words "Safe Mode" appear in blue at the bottom, select the installation that you want to start, and then press ENTER.\n\nOnce you enter the system in the safe mode, try defragging the hard drive.  \n\nIf the above steps don't work, probably your hard drive is getting corrupt.  Try backing up all the data on the hard drive before it goes kapoot!

Restart the machine.\n\nIf it stills boots into safe mode, restart again and hit F8 a few times.  This will bring up the boot menu.  Select Normal

During boot check for a message like 'hit DEL to enter setup'. The key to hit may be F2, del or something else. Keep on tapping the key while the machine boots.

How old is your laptop may I ask? Mine has done that a couple times after it comes out of stand-by, but it eventually turns on. Your hard drive isn't starting up, or there isn't any power getting to the hard drive.

Some startup application or service is likely causing your computer to not finish starting Windows.\n\nRestart the computer and press F8 until the startup screen appears (before Windows ever loads).  Choose the "Save mode with networking" option.  If you get into Windows, click Start, Run, and type "msconfig".\n\nGo to the Startup tab and uncheck everything in there.  Click "OK".\n\nRestart your computer and it should start right up normally.  After you are in, go back into "msconfig" (described above) and, starting at the top, check off a couple of items.  Then click OK and reboot again.\n\nRepeat this until it doesn't start normally.  Then whatever you checked last will be the culprit.  Either uninstall that app, reinstall it, or leave it unchecked in msconfig.

start the computer then hit the F8 butten repeatedly until your safe mode page appears...don't hit the F8 quickly but about once every 2 seconds

If you have wiped your hard drive, the computer should stop booting after the BIOS, the black screen before windows. You will have to reinstall windows. All data is ofcourse gone. However, if windows starts up at all then the disk hasnt been wiped.

It will do this if the computer is not properly shut down. Let it go into safe mode, and use the start>shutdown function from there. If it insists on going to safe mode and won't start any other way (after you pick normal start) then there is a big problem and you may have to reinstall windows.

If it does only during startup then its the BIOS setting that holds the key. But if it does quite often during your normal working, then a virus could be a culprit. Another reason could of some program which has been run from the drive and stopped adruptly and its still seeking its home from the background.
