NOW I have an hour system to load in front of me and no direction!:eek:
{previous post in the CRASHES & DEBUGGING/vista forum, all my system info is there- titled how do i tackle this)
Dell vostro1000, vista 32 home basic/factory installed system
only have REINSTALL DISKs
Tried the Dell restore to factory setting as listed in manual-
I tried the F8, got to the advanced system boot screen,
highlighted "repair my computer"
then i get gray/black screen for about 15 minutes,
then windows restarts
and my background picture appears,
it takes about 10 more minutes for my settings to all appear,
no internet access, everything is a mess
I am on someones computer, need help- geek how to's did the "repair" cd last night, but don't instructions
DELL, stuff isn't working-
I don't know if i put in my reinstall disks from DELL,
do i put in operating system 1st?????????
(or) do i put in applications REINSTALL disk?
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My nightmare happened, and i don't know if the person who worked on computer before did something to alter the course of a factory restore or anything
i don't know what to do and the computer is my life job hunt, post grad degree, and porfolio creation.
