Hi
Above all, I want to tell them that I use a translator as they do not write their language.
I have an HP Pavilion laptop 9000, with windows ultimate 64 bit, and here for some days this giving me problems when you start the laptop. When you turn comes a screen where the startup repair attempts to repair the system, then get a screen where it says it was unable to repair the system.
After several attempts to achieve, by using the CD to restore windows, which turned the laptop properly, but after that, when you turn off and turn on your computer that does not boot properly, the message appeared again that the startup repair attempts to repair the system.
Not to make my laptop work properly
I hope can help
Thank you
Pilar

Hi Pily, and welcome to Vista Forums.

If Startup Repair was unable to to fix the problem, then it may be beyond repair and you will need to do a clean reinstall of Vista again.

thanks Shawn,

Thank you for an answer, and not just resinste the windows unless you restore your computer as it was originally purchased with the help of cd restore.
Help me please. At this moment I am using the laptop that I speak, and I get off terror because I'm afraid that this does not turn properly

Pily,

Backup anything that you do not want to lose, then boot from your recovery CD. This will format your hard drive and reinstall Vista back to factory default.

hello (again) shawn,

This morning i turned on my laptop (Asus M50SV) and everything was ok. i saw that there were new microsoft updates, so i checked all of the impotant files and download it. and then i restarted my laptop, then after the asus screen, Windows Boot Manager showed up and the image below was shown on the screen:

i dont want(again) to reinstall windows vista and i only have recovery dvd for my laptop. do you think this startup repair will manage my problem? what do you think is the cause of this mess? i even tried safe mode to try system restore but asus preload wizard will appear suddenly and it will use the recovery dvd to restore windows and delete my files.. hope u'll help me in this shawn..

tnx..

Shawn, yesterday i format my hard drive and reinstall Vista back to factory default. Today mi laptop working ok.

I hope that everything works fine, but I am worried about the updates that suggests the system concerning the windows, it is always necessary to install them? thanks and happy day

(sorry if the translator does not translate correctly and I do understand it is difficult)

Hello Blackhawk,

You have a OEM recovery cd that is not capable of doing a Startup repair, only a clean install of Vista to factory defaults instead.

Howevery, this tutorial will show you how to create a Recovery Disc that you can use to do a Startup Repair with to hopefully fix your boot (BCD) file.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Pily,

It is always best to install the available Windows Updates to help keep Vista up to date with patches for bugs and keep it more secure. However, when you have a lot of updates, it may be best to only install a few at a time to help prevent them from conflicting with each other.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

You can do a startup repair by booting in to the recovery by hitting F11 for HP or whatever the key is to boot into the recovery partition and do a startup repair.
