rebooting? I have a toshiba laptop with windows vista home edition .I do not have the os disk. The computer freezes up all the time. I have to end up powering it off because it won't let me do anything at all on it. Very frustrating. I have found some advice on someone else with the same problem and there was an answer which helped this guys problem except I need someone to explain to me how to do this in steps.
This is the answer the guy with the vista problem was given....
Very easy problem to fix. Reboot your computer when it's in the boot up stage just keep hitting the F8 Key. This will bring up the repair menu with a list of options. The hard drive in the Vista operating system is partitioned. This replaced your operating system disk from all previous operating systems as it is in a safe section of the hard drive out of the reach of viruses. You access it by hiting the F8 key during boot up. Start at the first option and work your way down until the problem is solved. Should take all of about 2 minutes.
Thanks for any help/advice.
