Vista - Startuprepair ... Help

Hey guys and girls,

I really need your help here!!...
My PC wont start onto my Desktop Screen, the only thing you can see is the "System Recovery", and the "System Recovery" doesnt work (it wont repair).

The computer did shutdown while I completed an programinstallation, probably a virus?:S

Is there a way of getting this fixed?


Thanks for the help!!

looks like the built in startup repair is corrupt , this isusually stored on a seperate partition on your hard drive , im assuming its a shop bought pc and you have no actual Vista disc , with a Vista disc you can do a repair , if your repair files are corrupt there really is no option for you have you tried ringing Acer support?

or you could try making a repair disk Windows Vista Recovery Disc Download — The NeoSmart Files

Thanks alot for your time and help, Archie!

Yes, you are right, bought this one at a shop without a Vista disc.
Ahhh really? what a pitty
Yeah maybe I should call Acer indeed...

There must be a way....I hope?

have you tried the link for creating a vista repair disk? Its ideal for your situation

Oh sorry forgot that, ... yeah thanks mate! ...
Hope this works....
