Help restoring VAIO F from recovery DVD
Hi 7 experts,
Need help in restoring my VAIO F from recovery DVDs
I created the recovery DVDs when I first got it, and used it successfully last year to do a re-install.
Now the computer got stuck again, and I tried to do restore/reinstall from the DVD but am unable to.
When I power it on with DVD #1, it shows the menu of (a) Start VAIO Care Rescue (b) Repair Windows.
I select the "Start VAIO Care Rescue", press ENTER, it say "Loading Windows files",
then the flying Windows screen appears, then a blueish screen with white cloud like screen appears,
and it's stuck there, I waited for hours.
I dont get any other screen or form.
The laptop incl the dvd drive is fine, can boot up linux just fine,
the DVD itself is fine, I can read it on another machine.
What do I do to restore / reinstall the VAIO?
It's a Windows 7 Home Premium, if that matters.
Thanks.
