"windows failed to start"
This is a one week old laptop with pre-installed Windows Home Premium 64.
Recently, everytime I reboot, after the initial bootup screen, I get a black window that says
...................................
Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the prblem:
1. Insert your Windows installation disc and restart the computer
2. Choose your language settings and then click "next"
3. Click "repair your computer"
status: 0xc0000034
Info: An unexpected error has occured
......................
If I click on Enter it just repeats.
If I click on Esc at reboot it takes me to a screen where I click on "system repair" after which it boots normally to my desktop. But the next time I reboot it does the same thing again.
I do not have a "Windows installation disc" to use. I have the System Restore discs I created that would restore the system to factory condition.
There also is a "Repair Partition"
What should I do? Thanks, Jeff
