    Hello, today i bought a new sony sr. I opened the notebook and booted into windows vista home premium x64. The computer was running fine and i set everything i needed up. I then proceeded to put my computer into hibernate mode to charge the battery fully. Then after a full charge I attempt to wake my computer up and i receive an error that says windows has failed to start.1. insert your installation disk and restart your computer.2. choose your language. 3.repair your computer. The file is /boot/bcd and the error is 0xc000014c. The only problem i have is i haven't written the recovery disks yet and i do not have the disks needed. I could put a copy of xp sp3 or vista ultimate but i would prefer not to do that. Thanks for your help.
    EDIT :problem fixed. sorry =p
