Unable to boot vista in normal mode, running out of options

Hi All,
Today my Vista system "auto"-rebooted at some point (about 8 hours ago) and I have been trying to gt it working again since.
Tried everything, restore points, repair from original DVD, msconfig variouos configs, the full monthy, nothing seems to work (even tried rebuilding the bootrecord etc)

As a last resort I can reinstall Vista but maybe one of you guys have an idea!

In the ntbtlog.txt i see that the last driver nstalled seems to be CDFS.sys but when disconnecting the DVD-RAM and DVD-rom's nothing happens.

The system boots normally in BIOS, I get the bar that Vista is starting and when that's done I get a black screen (no pointer) and then it just seems to stop.

I have a Asus P5E, 4Gb Corsair RAM, Geforce a few 360Gb drives and 2 DVD's.

Thanks for sharing your ideas on this one,

Bart

Hi Bob-a-fat

Welcome to the forums.

If you let it boot normally what happens? Error message?

Have you tried to boot into safe mode?
Have you checked your bios to make sure none of the settings have changed.
Have you tried booting from the last known good configuration?
