Hello everyone,
I am writing this post because I have a HP laptop with Vista and since wednesday it won't boot.
When I turn it on it brings me to the recovery mode but it won't load all I get is the blue background from the recovery mode and the cursor that can move.
I tried a hard drive test from BIOS the quick test pass with no problem but the extensive test freezes at 49%.
The safe move will load, but all I get is the black background with the windows safe mode watermark on top and bottom of the screen and the cursor than I can move.The windows bar won't load.
I've tried the last good configuration but it gets me on the recovery mode which as usual freezes.
I don't have the recovery vista dvd since it was preinstalled on the computer when I bought it and they didn't give the dvd with the computer.
I am a student with absolutely no money and I don't know if it's the software or hardware that need to be fixed.
Does anybody know how I can fix this and start studying on my laptop again?Can anyone tell me how I can make sure my hd works or how to troubleshoot this won't boot problem?
Any help you give will be really appreciated.
