For people who only have a restore image - Windows Vista Recovery Disc
Download:
http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/window...disc-download/

You will need third-party burning software to burn the file you download as
an image, not data. ImgBurn is free and it's good.

Then boot with it and choose "Repair". You'll see the option to do a System
Restore there.

Then I guess you don't have any System Restore points to restore to and
whatever you were trying to do to fix your system won't work. Since I don't
know anything about your computer or its recent history, there's not too
much more I can say.

Have you tried repairing your computer - not doing a System Restore - by
following these steps?

The recovery CD you made will work for this process.

If not, I would try that. If you already did try that and got no joy, then
the next step is to back up your data using a Linux Live CD or a Bart's PE
and then restore your computer to factory condition.

Again, I must stress that I know nothing about your computer or what brought
it to this condition so you may want to get a diagnosis from a competent
local tech who can have hands-on. If you go this route, I don't recommend
using a BigComputerStore/GeekSquad type of place.
