Hey I am having trouble with the vista recovery disc download...
I downloaded the iso then burned it onto a cd r
then I put it in my laptop, (a sony vaio vgn-fz160e) and I am able to boot from it
it then says "windows is loading files" and a white progress bar appears at the bottom of the screen
however, is then proceeds to just keep booting up windows like I never booted from the disc...
after a little bit it just stays frozen on a dark-blue screen, the one right before you enter your log-in info
I could really use some help with this, I have papers and stuff I need to write for the weekend
I'll give any other info anyone else needs but I really really need help
thanks alot
-Todd
Addendum:
basically I am good up until the screen where you choose your language and what you want to do next... repair, and the other options
this screen..

Addendum:
