Hi All,

I'm totally messed with a problem.
I have my laptop(Vista Home premium 32 bit) fine and running from past 1 and half year.
Suddenly from 5 days I am facing 'Display driver nvlddmkm failed and restored successfully'. Don't know when and why this happens.

So I thought of restoring my system to 5 days back.

I selected System restore back up point to 23rd of September,09.
During this process something got messed up and when restarted it is showing 'blue screen' . Nothing else is visible.

I'm able to login through safe mode.but don't know what to do with this.

I also tried to do system repair. But no use.Ended up with same.
Tried to do system restore again. No use.

Can any one please suggest me what might be the cause and what should I do now.

Even if I want to reinstall Vista, manufacturer has not provided any backup cd with my laptop.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,
Joshna

You could contact Sony and request the operating system media. This might cost $$.

Hi
When you login through safe mode try system restore and choose another restore point earlier than 23rd of sept. I think you might have a virus.

Your system is in such a mixed up state you fastest and easiest repair is going to be a clean re-install

Hi All,
I tried with sytem restore and startup repair, but no use.
What might be the cause? How can I come over this problem.
I have seen so many threads in forums with the same problem, but unable to find any solution any where.

Regards,
Joshna

Hi ken,

How to reinstall now. I do not have any backup cd with me. And will all vista updates (till now) get applied directly?

did your computer come with vista pre-installed? if so there should be a sticker on the bottom with a vista key. it would just be a matter of downloading vista, burning it to disk and re-insstalling. A clean install will mean you have to re-install your apps, and if there is any data on the disk you cant live without not the way to go.

At least if you have the vista dvd you can boot from it.

What have you tried to repair you current OS?

EDIT: have you done anything besides what is in your first post???

If you end up doing a complete reinstall, and you don't have the media, you should consider contacting Sony to find out if you can obtain the system media for no or little cost.

But first answer Archie's question....

joshna boot into safemode and follow those instructions :) before i pull out whats left of my hair ;) ;)

that will disable all the drivers that normally boot with vista one of those drivers may be whats preventing vista from booting normally

if it boots (im not saying it will we just need to try) THEN WE CAN TURN BACK ON THE DRIVERS ONE BY ONE TILL IT DOESNT BOOT ANYMORE AND THEN WE HAVE YOURT CULPRIT :)

oh i dunno why its gone all caps :p

Hi,
I'm able to login in safe mode. I followed the instructions given by Archie for clean boot and restarted.
After restarting, I'm able to see the same blue screen ( the problem remains).
