    Start up repair cannot repair this computer automatically

    Hi,
    I need a bit of help with vista.
    I have tried to start up my computer after an update and now I get an error that says "Start up repair cannot repair this computer automatically"
    It outlines the following:
    Problem event name StartupRepairV2
    Problem Signature 01: AutoFailover
    Problem Signature 02: 6.0.6000.16386.6.6.0.600.16386
    Problem Signature 03: 6
    Problem Signature 04: 917517 (also had 851980)
    Problem Signature 05: NoRootCause
    Problem Signature 06: NoRootCause
    Problem Signature 07: 0
    Problem Signature 08: 2
    Problem Signature 09: WrpRepair
    Problem Signature 10: 87
    OS Version: 6.0.6000.2.0.0.256.1
    Locale ID: 1033

    I have tried restore but it cannot restore either.
    I dont have a vista CD as it was all installed when I bought the computer so I cant use that idea either.
    Any help would be GREAT!!!! URGENT NEED OF HELP!!! :(

    Re: Start up repair cannot repair this computer automatically

    The boot config is missing messed up. You have severe corruption of Vista. Boot into the Vista disk (or recovery partition), and Repair. Select repair startup (may have to do this twice).

    or try bootrec.exe Tool
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927392

    To run the Bootrec.exe tool, you must start Windows RE. To do this, follow these steps:
    1.Put the Windows Vista installation disc in the disc drive, and then start the computer.
    2.Press a key when you are prompted.
    3.Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then click Next.
    4.Click Repair your computer.
    5.Click the operating system that you want to repair, and then click Next.
    6.In the System Recovery Options dialog box, click Command Prompt.
    7.Type Bootrec.exe, and then press ENTER

    Bootrec.exe options

    The Bootrec.exe tool supports the following options. Use the option that is appropriate for your situation.

    Note If rebuilding the BCD does not resolve the startup issue, you can export and delete the BCD, and then run this option again. By doing this, you make sure that the BCD is completely rebuilt. To do this, type the following commands at the Windows RE command prompt:
    •bcdedit /export C:\BCD_Backup
    •c:
    •cd boot
    •attrib bcd -s -h -r
    •ren c:\boot\bcd bcd.old
    •bootrec /RebuildBcd

    /FixMbr
    The /FixMbr option writes a Windows Vista-compatible MBR to the system partition. This option does not overwrite the existing partition table. Use this option when you must resolve MBR corruption issues, or when you have to remove non-standard code from the MBR.

    /FixBoot
    The /FixBoot option writes a new boot sector to the system partition by using a boot sector that is compatible with Windows Vista. Use this option if one of the following conditions is true:
    •The boot sector has been replaced with a non-standard Windows Vista boot sector.
    •The boot sector is damaged.
    •An earlier Windows operating system has been installed after Windows Vista was installed. In this scenario, the computer starts by using Windows NT Loader (NTLDR) instead of Windows Boot Manager (Bootmgr.exe).

    /ScanOs
    The /ScanOs option scans all disks for installations that are compatible with Windows Vista. Additionally, this option displays the entries that are currently not in the BCD store. Use this option when there are Windows Vista installations that the Boot Manager menu does not list.

    /RebuildBcd
    The /RebuildBcd option scans all disks for installations that are compatible with Windows Vista. Additionally, this option lets you select the installations that you want to add to the BCD store. Use this option when you must completely rebuild the BCD.
