Switch off your computer.  Restart it .  Press F8 repeatedly until you see safe mode.   Try doing it from there.

you have to call Microsoft. sadly its either a hard drive problem or a vista problem. either way you have to have a professional help you.  

Answer 4

The system restore should work, since it does not then it is likely that the restore file has become damaged. If you turn off then turn on system restore thn the file will be recreated to todays date. If the file gets corrupted in the future then is is possible that there is a hardware fault on the laptop requiring repair http://www.trilogicuk.co.uk

Answer 5

I think calling microsoft will cost you a h**l of a lot of money. I would just take it to a nearby computer repair shop and ask them to do a reformat/reinstall of windows and should cost around £45

Answer 6

Turn off system restore and get a program called "Farstone Restore IT" It works like system restore but is much better. Also you can only go back a few days because each restore point can take up a large amount of hard drive space. Restore IT can go back much further and works even if you can't boot into windows. I can restore my pc up to 84 days if I want to :)
