Place your original software disk that came with your computer in the tray boot the computer and it will perform the rest. Be sure the BIOS is set to boot from DVD or CD-Rom as first boot. The software will ask you what you want to do. If you do not have the original DVD restore disc set. You will have to do a either a restore computer from a restore point, from the safe mode from another date if you set this up prior, or you will have to completely install Windows or whatever operating software you are using make sure you are booting from the DVD or CDROM drive as the first boot.
If you have not done so already be sure to type in MSCONFIG a the run command and go to system restore and make sure to set a restore point. When you get your machine back up and running it is usually done by default so you may be lucky to be able to restore to the point where you know your machine was working properly without loosing your information. Also be sure to backup files if you can that are important to you always to either a USB External Drive or Stick or a DVD or CDROM always so if you have to do this again you will be able to put your software files and pics or documents back when restore is finished. I also recommend a upload program that you can find that stores files securely for free they give you so many gigs of room to do this.
