    Hello,
    Well I'm pretty certion is hardware failure and most likely the turbo memory, but right now im stuck. Currently my OS is corrupted nothing will work this time it gives me the standard 000000000f error code saying my registry is missing... Usually I get error codes and it still wont boot*. Normally I go to a friends and use an actually Vista dvd to repair the registry *Thanks asus for not including any sort of repair.....* Now it just refuses to boot any form of dvd. It will only boot cd's. Im currently typing on a live linux cd :mad: grrr. My question is can I dump vista onto a usb drive and get it to boot so i can repair it. I need to get back into my vista os so i can de register some keys for a few program or its gona be chaos..

    Also would i be able to take the hdd out and pop it in another computer using the vista dvd to repair it? The only problem Im having with that is will it change all the registry settings in it to ONLY work for the comp that i used to repair it?
