Insert you're windows vista install disk, boot up to it.

Once it boots up, select your languages, and before you click 'Install now', you'll see repair your computer. Click that, then when you get a list of options, select the start up option, if that doesn't fix it. You may have to use command prompt and try,

Bootrec.exe /fixmbr
Bootrec.exe /fixboot

and if that fails, well, you might have to do a reinstall..

cheers

 

thanks i will try

 

i think i had the same problem as you. After the "Welcome" Boot Screen had loaded, it faded out, but the desktop didnt fade in

I pressed Ctrl+Alt+Del and it came up with the Task Manager options, then when i clicked Cancel, my desktop would appear.

To solve this, i reinstalled my Graphics Drivers.

 

Oh, it also might be a video driver issue also.

 

video driver issue most probably...has happened million times on my vista....i used 163.69 for 2 weeks but eventually back to factory drivers
