Read the error message. It may indicate what the problem is. For example Inaccessible boot device. Then search on Google to find out how to avoid it.

Alternatively you can try to boot in safe mode. Press F8 during boot phase.

When a computer boots what screens appear before windows start?

It all depends on what OS (Operating System) you are running. on a normal windows install without any form of Mac,Linux or Unix OS`s installed it would just go to the bios screen and then right after that the splash screen would show up and then go right too the windows logon screen. Right now on my box I have Windows Vista and Ubuntu and on a typical boot sequence on my box First I have the (basic input/output system (BIOS) screen then i have a GRUB (GRand Unified Bootloader) screen pop up after that and it gives me a selection too choose from of all the OS`s I have installed on my box then I either let if load Ubuntu by default or choose windows. after I select one and press enter it gos to the splash screen which is basically a moving bar then after the splash screen you have the logon screen and after that you most likely know the rest.

What Linux distro is the fastest?

There is no scientific measurement for how "fast" an operating system is. You can only compare things like: 1. How fast an operating system boots. The fastest booting desktop distro is probably Mach Boot. 2. How much or how little RAM / processor power the system needs to run. The desktop distro with the lowest system requirements is probably Damn Small Linux. 3. How little space it requires. Tiny Core Linux requires only 10 MB for a very basic desktop system 4. The desktop that can best take advantage of hardware, such as video cards. Foresight Linux is designed to show off the latest Linux desktop environments, all with flashy effects and stuff.
