Booting from usb problem
I have an acer laptop that i upgraded from vista to 32bit windows 7 which was installed a few months ago through my USB because my cd drive doesnt work. Now I am getting the unmountable boot volume blue screen error so I am trying to boot the installation from my USB. It gets past "windows is loading files", then it goes to starting Windows with the logo... but after that I get a black screen with just the mouse arrow. Last night I kept this up all night thinking it was just slow but with no luck. I made an USB that has the windows vista system recovery disk on it and Booted that and that worked but I cannot use it to repair because it is for Vista only. any ideas??
