hello again... something interesting happened while I was trying to fix my computer... last night I was in my friends house asked him if I can borrow the vista DVD... he said OK but I wanted to be sure if the dvd was really working: and it was working actually... So I took it... Now I'm trying to boot my computer with this dvd but my dvd drive makes some repeating sound... like it can't read the dvd... I tried the dvd in another computer just 5 moments ago and it was fine again. So if the DVD was ok then maybe my DVD drive might be broken; However, I am trying another bootable dvd right now and it's working surprisingly... So let's see what we have... a non-broken DVD player, clean bootable DVD, a working computer with uncertain aftermath... What's the problem with that for god's sake? Is it about the drivers?

Well I've been waiting 15 minutes but nothing has happened... I borrowed my friends Vista installation dvd.... the oem DVD that you can buy it from the Electronic device stores... it's a standart installation dvd I also tried another thing; while I tried to boot from dvd I pressed F8 to and selected to open windows in safe mode... By doing so, it shows all the drivers it loads... but the last driver I could see was C:/Windows/System32/Drivers/disk.sys . Can there be a problem with that...

I've taken my friends vista dvd.... and I made necessary changes for booting from dvd... but the only thing I can see in the screen is vista coloured background... No window is opening for installing vista... I really don't understand... So I decided to update my bios.. and I did... but still no changes... there must be a reason ....

Hi again Wolfeymol... I get a vista dvd right now and I've already make the necessary bios configuration but still the same thing.... What is this... Background comes but vista installation window never appears ...

I don't have another computer with dvd burner... But... do you mean that master boot record or a vista recovery disc from different computers hdd can solve the problem of my computers vista? If this is true I can go to one of my friends house and get the recovery cd and do the recovering... OR if someone can e-mail me that...

no... and I don't have a vista dvd right now but under these conditions if I can't solve it I'll buy a vista dvd BUT I really don't know if rebooting from DVD drive and overriding previous vista will solve the problem.. So what can you suggest? at least I want to try to fix it...

Hello everyone. I have Asus f3sc 180dr laptop with Vista home premium OS inside. Yesterday vista was working fine and after my work had finished with my laptop I clicked close button to close computer... and it was closing fine actually; However during the closing, the electricity gone off. And now I can not start vista: I mean when I start my computer, during the boot, it comes up with a black page with 2 options 1) Repair the boot (or something like that) 2) Start Windows normally If I choose 1) then that page disappears for 3 seconds and comes back again... and if I choose 2) it starts booting but coming to that page again. So I was stucked with that boot recovery page. So I tried fixing the problem with bios: pressed f2 during boot... but I couldn't find any error... Right now it boots and shows a bar with a header "Windows is loading files..." and then it seems like Vista will open properly but it only comes to a vista coloured backgrounded page and it stucks... I'm waiting for your instructions right now... Thanks for your help
