VGN-FW11M - Vista will not load

Hi,

I have a VGN-FW11M, its a few years old now, but does what I need it for to Skype with the family while I work away. This morning it failed to load windows vista.

Windows error message Failed to start due to hardware or software change. Launch Startup Repair, but all I get is a black screen with cursor only after its ran.

I have tried to boot using my recovery disk but still get the same black screen with cursor only. CD is primary boot.

Go to Windows Boot manager and select: Windows Memory Diagnostic and no problems recorded. Reboots and black screen with Cursor only.

F8, tried to start: Safe, Safe with network & with comd and still get black screen and curosr only.

So any advice on how to get windows running again please.

Thanks

Chris
