When i start up my laptop it wont load windows up.
It tries to automatically repair the computer but never succeeds and it come up with another error message again.

When i try and do system restore it says that i have not created any restore points. So that doesn't work.

Windows complete restore doesn't work either because i didn't get a disk or anything when i bought my laptop. And i also didn't create one when i first go it.

Anyone know how to fix the problem? Any help would be appreciated

You could just let it rest. It could be a simple over heating problem. Of course that would mean in a short period it will crash again, before it finally quits.

You could also try doing a factory restore. That will cause you to lose personal data like photos and music and video. It pretty much takes your computer back to when you newly purchased it.

Buy a new restore disk.
It's your only option, really.
Unless you want to pay more money to get it looked at and/or repaired.

Okay, another thing is maybe your hard drive failed.  The best thing to do is try to find a store that offers a free assessment of your computer.

No you probably just need to reinstall windows.  Common problem, i have had to reinstall windows soo fucking many times.  Get a macbook next time, my whole family switched to macs OS X is much more reliable.

No.

Where you usually go to restore to an earlier point, there should be an advanced options button. Then you click factory restore, then a few other instructions to follow and you should be good to go.

What led you to that conclusion?

Sounds more like some missing or damaged system files. You will need system restore discs or just OS discs. I would just use an external hard drive and a Linux LiveCD to backup important (if hard drive is big enough do all and sort it out later).

On the bottom of your laptop there is probably a sticker with something saying a certain Windows edition. Since you have a valid serial number you already legally own a copy of the OS. There are some ways to obtain a legal copy, but because of how it is done it could potentially be supplying others with information on how to get it illegally.
Feel free to PM me if you need help with my method.

On the bottom of your laptop there is probably a sticker with something saying a certain Windows edition. Since you have a valid serial number you already legally own a copy of the OS. You now have the option to download a fresh copy through a torrent site without having to crack it. You need to download and install the same edition that you already own (XP home, XP pro, Vista home premium x86, vista home premium x64...). It will probably come as an ISO file so you need to use something like DeepBurner or Nero to burn it properly (unless using Windows 7).

Feel free to PM me if you need help with my method.



Thanks, i will certainly give it a try.

Hey AllEyezOnME,
Can you post the error message that the computer is giving you?
The first thing you should try to do is access Safe Mode. When the computer is turning on hold down F8, Select the option that lets you go into safe mode. If you can access your computer in safe mode you can most likely repair it without too many problems. If you can access it through safe mode please post your error message here and I will tell you what to do depending on what the error is.


If you cannot access your computer through safe mode you will have to find another way of repairing it, If you have access to the internet (I'm assuming you do since you are posting) download this Recovery Console ISO. Once you have downloaded that burn it to a CD using a program like Nero or Magic ISO. Once you have it burned on a CD turn your computer on, Read the text that is displayed when you turn the computer on and try to find a message about accessing your computers BIOS, Once you find the message which should look something like one of these:
# Press [key] to enter setup
# Setup: [key]
# Enter BIOS by pressing [key]

Press the key required to enter setup (BIOS), Once you are in BIOS (blue screen usually) look through the menus until you find a option that says "Primary Boot Device" change your primary boot device from "Hard Drive or Hard Disk" to "CD drive". Once this is done restart your computer and insert the recovery disk your previously created, The computer should boot into the recovery disk instead of your normal operating system, Follow the recovery disks onscreen instructions until you get to the console that allows you to type in commands. Type in the console "chkdsk c:/r" (without the quotes) Replace c:/ with whatever your default drive letter is, So if your hard drive usually appears as E:/ in my computer then write in the recovery console "chkdsk e:/r" (without quotes), and then press ENTER.

Let this run for however long it needs to, Although it is not guaranteed to fix your error there is a chance that it could, This command will repair errors, locate bad sectors, and recover readable information. Please keep this CD handy and don't throw it away because it is a valuable CD that can come in handy if the error ever happens again.

If this hasn't solved your problem please post your error here so that we can provide you with more assistance that is relevant to your problem. Please post any information that you think is even slightly relevant, The more information you provide on your issue the more better and relevant help you will receive.
If you have any questions or need help please PM me and I will assist you to the best of my ability.
