Vista advice sought
My GF's Toshiba laptop had a funny turn and has been sat at the STARTUP REPAIR screen for a few days now.

Nothing I do can get it past this screen, I have F8'd till my fingers bleed, when choosing anything from the SAFE MODE screen it reverts to STARTUP REPAIR and doing its thing.

Can anyone help with this before said Tosh meets with violence?

Many thanks in advance

sadly (or maybe not) - I've never used Vista on a laptop...

Is there an option to boot into safe mode still to try and get it to boot?

Good luck - Frank
