    system crash on zoostorm netbook


    Hi
    First time on the forum, hope someone can help?
    My daughter's fairly new zoostorm network has started to play up. All has been fine until she turned it on this morning and we now get the windows boot manager up. It says it failed to start. It tells me to install the windows disc in to repair but these netbooks don't come with a windows disc?
    Underneath it says:
    File: \boot\bcd
    status: 0xc000000f
    info: an error occurred while attempting to read the boot configuration

    If you turn it off to restart it comes up with just F2 or F12, both of which go back to the message above. I thought you were supposed to be able to press F8 and at least do a restore but it won't let me. It just keeps looping back.
    Any ideas?

    Press the F8 key repeatedly at boot up or use the Startup disk.

    Try this:
    Startup Repair
    Note: You may need to do startup repair 3 to 4 times.

    System Recovery Options
    Repair Install
    Partition - Mark as Active

    In your case you will need copy this disc to USB. System Repair Disc - Create
    USB Windows 7 Installation Key Drive - Create

    As I said in the original post. Pressing F8 continuously does nothing. There is NO startup disc. I can't get to start-uprepair, I just get this loop, nothing else?
