win 7 has stopped booting .. what are my options ?
HI,
I have an advent verona netbook which had win7 installed from new.
recently it was becoming very sluggish, this was followed by it not responding at all and all i could do was boot into safe mode.
Now it will only boot to the recovery options (startup repair) and regardless of what i click (attempt to fix error / reinstall windows / etc ) the computer just hangs, freezes or does not respond at all to key / mouse presses.
So what are my options ?
The computer has no disk drive and came with no install disks etc - so thats not an option.
I can enter command prompt from the start up repair so my inital thought was f disk and try to install my copy of vista on it which ive put on a memory stick - but even when i boot from the memory stick i get the options to install vista but then its just the same freezing / hanging and doing nothing .
Is there a way i can completely wipe the computer ?
Any help much appreciated as im at a complete loss now
