Hi there, I have tapped F8 key and it takes me to the advanced boot options, then I dont know what to do after thatt, help! I am an online student and I cannot get my work done without that computer. I have tried F2, F12, F9, and it always ends up in either error recovery or the one I mentioned above. I just cannot figure it out.

I think you need to do a start-up repair , this tutorial from bleeping computers explains how http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tut... You may also not have a Full install disk , so this will do . http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windo... Nb. you do not need to use a torrent downloader for this disc just double click on the down loaded link and select the browser of choice . Some people have reported problems when they have burned this disk with Nero , I have had no problems with Vista's burner or Cdburnerxp , just slow the burn speed down a bit , If start-up repair does not do it for you try system restore .
