    Vista repair problem

    I'm currently having a problem with my bosses PC. It will not boot into Vista.
    I have booted into safe mode and tried to rool it back to a restore point.
    This has not helped.

    I have also tried using Startup Repair on the Vista DVD which fails and
    gives me the following report:
    -----------------------------------------------------------
    Problem Event Name : StartupRepairV2
    Problem Signature 01: ExternalMedia

    What are the system recovery options in Windows Vista?

    Re: Vista repair problem

    if you can't recover or repair you may have a bad drive and a clean install
    is next with a new drive.
    Just a guess.
