Yesterday, me and my sister were watching some movies on my laptop. And then the whole thing froze. We did the natural thing:
CtrlAltDelete. But the thing never came up. And i have a vista so the computer never turned blue first. Nothing seemed to work. So.. We just pressed the off button and it turned off. And, ofcourse, we turned it back on. But i say that in the weakest of sense, because it didnt exactly turn on. We pressed the button TO turn it on, but a screen came up that said: "There as been a disk read error. Please press CtrlAltDelete" My first thought was "Well, atleast my computers not dead" So, we pressed CtrlAltDelete The computer "restarted" but instead of fully restarting, it went back to that screen. We even let the battery run out and tried it again but it didnt work =[ AAHHHHH, we could never turn on the computer! DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHATS GOING ON?! I DO NOT WANT TO REBOOT THE COMPUTER!! (In case you're wodnering, i'm usig my sisters laptop. THANK GOD she's here for the week) |

Keep in mind that Windows Vista is still really buggy. So the typical things you can do on XP you can't do on Vista until the service packs come out for Vista. Right now Vista is highly unreliable. |
