Starting Watch Dog Initialization

Hello, I wasn't able to access the USB drive to utilize the AVG Rescue CD.  I was running the Free version of AVG plus a web something that was updated yesterday.  I called Dell and we kept rebooting.  The F8 key wouldn't do anything.  Finally windows tried to repair itself (after being on the phone with tech support for an hour) and the computer booted up normally.  I immediately uninstalled both AVG products.  I have always used AVG and feel like I've lost a friend :frowning:

My Dell laptop updated this morning.  Things started to get slower and slower.  Then it rebooted and I got a black screen the a series of statements… Starting Watch Dog Initialization; Loading Config, Pre initialization events, etc.  Final line is Phase 1: finished.  

I've read some of the 'fixes" but not seem to work.  SHIFT + F8 when applied does nothing.  Windows will not load.  I am on another laptop typing this question.  My Dell doesn't have a cd drive so I'm going to try to download the rescue disk as mentioned.  

Is there anything else I can try?
