Hi, Shane only could thro some light on this problem

Boggin:
How do you mean "formatted the netbook" - was that a factory reset or did you wipe it and do a clean install of Win 7 either as an upgrade from another version of Windows or as a reinstall of Win 7 ?

And was it a chkdsk /r you did ?

I installed Windows from scratch again

Boggin:
When you boot up into Safe Mode there is an option for Last Known Good Configuration but from what I understand, this is an intermittent problem ?

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

Boggin:
You didn't say if it was a chkdsk /r you performed ?
