BSOD Ruins Entire Internet

I was doing homework online, and all of the sudden I Windows gave me what I think is 8's BSOD (It was a blue screen with a frowning face, so it wasn't a happy screen at any rate). After restarting, both of my browsers, google chrome and IE simply won't work. IE closes the minute it is opened without so much as an error message, and chrome crashes as soon as I search anything.

I tried to remedy the situation by using the troubleshooter, but it told me files on the :C drive were corrupted. Windows suggested that I restore my computer to its state when it last updated. I ran the command to do so, and now my computer has been restarting for the past 12 hours. What should I do?

Typed on my iPhone, so I apologize for any grammar mishaps.
