The problem was that when rebooting the computer instead of getting the login screen, where you can select the login account, I got a blank black screen with a mouse cursor that responded. After much rebooting and running of the automated recovery utility, I disconnected the USB devices that I had attached to my computer (harddrive and iPod) after which the OS rebooted successfully and I was able to log in. Nothing wrong with my USB devices, just couldn't boot with them attached for some bizarre reason. Yesterday, I experienced a problem with Windows Vista 32.
