    Mark i had something similar to your problem,computer just stopped and i started it up again and it ran check disc,came back to say do start up repair ran that and it showed root cause no OS.tried to start in safe mode to try and to go to last known good configuration to no avail.I then tried to reboot in BIOS with discs i got with the Dell and it went to something like90%.

    Gave it to a computer genius and he fixed it then installed the discs ,it might not be the discs that are the problem.

    think your computer genius is better than mine

    will check if bottom of computer for valid windows vista key number as mentioned by supremeweb

    or continue to seek a dell windows vista disk to check if my disk is the problem.

    suddenly my laptop is not booting up, giving me a failure to load windows message.

    I have tried to open in safe mode, restart last session, every option and nothing works.

    Me not being a computer expert, so got my works IT guy to look at it. He says the hard drive is all okay and it appears to be the software.

    As the laptop is only 1.5 years old i still have all disks etc.. However he has tried to reload the software and the windows vista software will not fully load, gets to about 90% then fails, so not sure if the disk is faulty.

    Dell want £40 for another vista disk, so does anyone have a Dell windows vista disk lying around that i can try out?

    or advise of what else could be wrong?

    I have been told to upgrade to windows 7 but don't want to spend £100.

    Thanks

    Police!!, think you guys all live in a dream world :rotfl:

    probably think that voting tomorrow will make a difference.

    the police are a total waste of space! when my car got stole they were no use at all.

    my car was spotted the next day and also seen around milton area weeks later, the thieves caught on cctv at a car wash, with driver in full view, and guess what, nothing happened !

    surely 17 year olds in a RS6 is enough for any police officer to be suspisios :rotfl:

    had to buy a box of 100no bolts but they were only about £8, mucho cheepness..

    Fitted them and gave the rest of the box to dunc at hypertech for spares, i will look tonight as i may have kept some.
