I think I did a bad thing!
My friend brought a laptop around to my house with windows vista installed on it but it wasn't booting up - it did the POST and then went to a blank screen. I couldn't get it to boot into safe mode or anything.
So, after some hours of trying various different things to no avail, me being stupid, I booted it up using a windows XP install disk that I happened to have floating about, went into the recovery console and did a CHKDSK /F (I think).
Have I completely knackered the installation or is there any hope at all?
I have since read up on the subject and I now realise that Vista is very different from it's predecessors! I don't have a bootable Vista install disk although I do have a bootable startup repair disk.
I'm not sure where to even start which is why I haven't provided any details - not too sure what details I should be providing. If anyone could help I'd be very appreciative.
Just tell me what I need to tell you?!!!
