    Hi, I got a virus (win32.brontok) so i decided I would just restore my laptop because I've only had it for a week or so. Anyway I've got the disk to restore it but I cant find it so I went through the blue button and restored it that way, without a disk. Now when the computer starts it goes through the instalition process putting programs on ect. When it finishes it logs off and restart. It does the exact same thing again. Puts everything on then when it does the final step logs off and restarts. It just keeps doing it :mad:

    Does anyone know what I've done wrong or how to fix it?

    Thanks

    Sounds like a corrupt recovery partition. Better find those recovery CDs or DVDs you made.
