You could try changing the boot order (tap F12 as you switch on) to boot up with the install disk - select Repair your Computer and navigate to the Recovery Environment - select Command Prompt then enter bootrec /fixmbr

These are other options of the Bootrec commands you can use http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927392

There's also the option of Startup Repair and an offboot sfc /scannow from the Command Prompt.

To do the offboot sfc /scannow while in the Recovery Environment, at the Command Prompt type bcdedit |find "osdevice" (that is a Pipe symbol before find)

Using whichever partition letter that gives, enter (assuming C: )

sfc /scannow /offbootdir=C:\ /offwindir=C:\Windows

So at least it won't be a failing HDD.

Boggin:
I'm not sure what you mean by that.

While your English is OK - your posts can be a bit vague.

Perhaps you could be more expressive if you put your reply into Google Translate then copy & paste the translation - this is what I had to do on another forum when someone posted in another language  :smiley:
