Several Weeks Ago I updated my laptop and when it restarted it just stoped at this black screen and sat there for hours. I had no clue waht was going with it. I used my gfs computer to look up the problem and that when i stumbled upon your iso recovery disk. So i burnt the image to the CD and thought i was saved. I ran the start-up repair but it took a long to display any results it just said Attempting to repair errors for about 3 days then i cut the laptop off because i do think that was working.
After leaving my laptop shut down in a corner for 3 weeks i decide to give it another shot seeing how i am starting school i kinda need it. I tried do the restore point but it says my harddrive needs to be checkd for errors. i attempted to run the chkdsak for the command prompt no luck. I tried to restore from back-up because i recently back-up my computer so data loss wasn't a big fear. But it states my back-ups were not valid.
I read around 20 forums on the vista boot problem and ended up taking bad advice from on which stated i should overite the system files with the ones found on your disk. I did and now instead of the black screen windows only loads system recovery (which is just a blue screen and mouse) unless i boot from disk.
I bought (yes bought) the HP recovery disk for my laptop from the company hoping my comp would boot it and fix my troubles. didn't work.
I saw the repairing you computer manually via BCD. I tried the command prompt but i don't even know how to change the letters it just says
" <X: SOURCES\> "
So does anyone know how to help me?
Addendum:
For the Record I have tried Safe MOde and Last Known Good configuration
