Hi all,
A friend of mine forced a shutdown on his laptop when it appeared to have frozen. Since then, it's not been booting into Vista. I've tried safe mode, and it just sits on the driver loading screen and does nothing (the most recently loaded driver being the display I believe), and trying it with 'last known good config' gets me to the normal vista loading bar but again, it sits there ticking over but getting nowhere.
I noticed that the activity on the HD was merrily flickering away under both loading conditions, but then abruptly stops and thereafter does nothing whatsoever.
Any ideas how I might get around this?
Cheers in advance!
