Answer» I have a dell inspiron 1525 that worked just fine when I was home and when I moved it to california with me it just STOPPED loading windows. I havent installed any new programs or anything. I get a blue screen everytime I try TURNING it on. and it corrupted or damaged the harddrive And again more nonsense If the file system is corrupt on the hd (and it may be) you need to boot to the recovery console and run chkdsk /r And read this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555302 Remove hard drive. Put it back. Do the same with RAM.I tried running chkdsk/r and it says type of file system is NFTS. Cannot lock current drive. You need to follow instructions. I said to boot to the recovery console and run chkdsk /rMy mistake then. How do I boot to the recovery console? I'm going to apologize because I'm sure I'll ask a lot of beginner questions with the windows cdAsk all you like - no apology necessary. Just please follow the instructions. Boot to your XP CD and choose the first recovery option (press "R"). That will take you to the recovery console. Once there run chkdsk /r It will take a while to run - let it finish.

I thought we were in the XP forum - second time I did that today. Boot to the Vista Disk and choose the repair options then command prompt and run chkdsk /r from there. If that doesn't work try startup repair and if that doesn't work do a system restore |
