My drive is visible in BIOS but when I start up my computer it says, “Error loading Operating System.” So, I used my Windows 7 disc as a boot option but when I choose the option to repair my computer my operating system is not showing. How can I fix it if it is not showing? I am also not able to go into safe made. I’ve tried every function key but nothing outside of F2(Setup) or F12(Settings) seems to work. Please help. This computer has been working great for me and all of a sudden it’s doing this.

i also have the sameprblem

—————————————————
This is so frustrating. My laptop is failing to boot Windows 7, but automatically goes to Startup Repair, which starts “checking my system for problems”.

It doesn’t give any time span or indication of how long it will take. I’m currently stuck at:
“Attempting repairs…
Repairing disk errors. This might take over an hour to complete.”

Been at this stage for about two hours. How do I know it’s not going to be like this all day and night?
————————————————-
Repir took more than 14hr & no result. hence i have followed the safemode but no use agin it was gone startup repair without result

Also tried repair system & cmd promt bootfix using win7 dvd eventhough no result.

pl suggest me the best process to resolve this issue because i havet taken my key data from my vaio laptop

FYI – I actually had to select F12 (Boot Options) to get it to boot from the CD. Not sure if anyone else had that problem.

Please I need help! My problem is that when I launch Startup Repair a grey option box appears with language, keyboard select. The box is not blue like the screenshot shown for step 3. I’m stuck with no cursor since the cursor doesn’t move nor respond. So I use the “tab key” to move around an select my language etc.; After all that I click “enter”…… and nothing happens. All that is visible is a blue windows backround with the cursor just stuck there. Please help me, I’m in very need for my labtop to work. Please reply via E-mail or here if more convenient. Thank you in advance.

Go into command prompt and type chkdsk after that restart the computer and press F8 till you get a screen that has many different boot opptions. Boot into safe mode with networking…Google and install Malware bytes and run a virus scan.

The above comment was with wrong email….I have a gateway nv52 with windows 7…Got a virus so I decided to recover it back to factory by choosing the recovery prompt…I’ve been successful once before but this time it did not work…It went through the process all the way up to the point to preparing desktop and then it crashes. I get to the point of putting in password, it says welcome and then says preparing desktop for a few seconds and then crashes. I can get to safe mode and command prompt. Any suggestions?
