So I tried to just do a full restore. The people at Sony told me that my computer didn't come with a recovery disk because the software to make one is pre-installed. So I went through the program Vaio Care and created restore disks. After putting in the disks the restore process started, and when it reached about 7% it stopped and I got 3 seperate error messages (323:41, 319, and 329) Since then I haven't been able to start windows at all. When I try to start my computer it tells me that I need to insert the recovery disks, but when I do that it just gets up to the same point and then I get the error messages. I think maybe the disk didn't burn correctly or something, and that screwed up my computer. I am still under warranty so I think I'm going to bring it in to Best Buy tomorrow and see if they can fix it. The lady I talked to at Sony said she thinks it is a hardware problem, but I think that the restore disks didn't burn correctly, and that's what screwed it up.
Another option I thought of was burning new recovery disks on my mom's computer, which also has windows 7, but is an HP. I'm not sure if that will work, but I guess it can't hurt. Anyway, please let me know what you think of this whole situation.
