    Hey guys I am having problems with my Sony VGN-FW560F, it won't get past the Windows 7 Splash Screen. I tried putting in the a windows 7 disc but it won't get into the recovery console. I tried reinstalling windows 7 off the windows dvd but it won't get past the "Setup is Starting", I can move around the mouse and all but thats all I see.

    Extra info:
    BIOS ver. R4070Y0

    Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated :D

    how long you've been waiting at ''setup is starting'' . On some configs it can be more than 15min to pass it
