Dell factory restore failed for Windows 7 home premium
I backed up my files ON the computer and ran the built in system recovery. On reboot, it shows a DOS screen listing media drivers then goes to boot windows and shows ANOTHER dos screen rapidly scrolling lines. I can read "failure" but cannot tell for what. It says the system needs to reboot, but then goes thru the same loop. I can F8 and have run every possible item there (repair start up files, etc), but cannot get windows to start, even in safe mode. My files are partitioned on the computer, so I don't want to just wipe it. Anyone have any suggestions?
