Hi Snipe--
Since the stop errors are ambivalent and could have a number of causes, and
you have a Latitude laptop, which makes it hard for you to do routine hdw
checks inside, you might be able to fix your system with a few minutes of
steps. Then you can contact Dell if you're not back to normal. You have
the fact that your machine is brand new going for you if there is a hdw
problem, and none of these steps harms you and they may help.
Dell promised to ship a Vista DVD with Startup Repair Options in the months
before Vista RTM'd and Lionel Manchaka, their VP for media, reneged on his
promise. If you need a Startup Repair Disk you can download and burn the
iso from this link. In Windows 7, MSFT makes it easy to make this disk from
the All Programs Menu under Maintenance:
Download Vista Repair Disk .iso and burn it to CD or DVD

1) First try 3 options from Startup Repair. If you have a Vista DVD then
restart with it in the drive>press any key to boot from it and run Startup
Repair. From Startup Repair you have 3 good tools with an excellent chance
of fixing your system. If you don't have a Vista DVD from which to boot to
Startup Repair, no problem, Download the .iso from the link below and
burn it, and you'll have the Microsoft Vista Repair Disk with Startup
Repair.

How to Use Startup Repair from the Vista DVD or the Repair Disk you make:

2) If Startup Repair does not get your Vista back, then use the 3 bootrec
commands from the command prompt available on the Statup Repair Menu:
The menu I refer to is in this set of directions with a grey background.

Those are:
bootrec /fixmbr
bootrec /fixboot
bootrec /rebuild BCD
3) If my second option doesn't work, then try System restore from the
Startup Repair list.
4) If by rare chance you have an actual Vista DVD, you can put it in, boot
from it>choose the Upgrade Option>choose your current broken Vista Drive and
try to do a repair install with the Vista DVD.

5) If the above 3 tools don't work, then use the 4 tools available by
restarting your pc and tapping F8 once per second to get to the Windows
Advanced Options Menu.
From this menu click on 3 Safe Mode links to use System Restore. Make sure
you try all 3 if one doesn't work, because just one of them may work.
Tap F8 to Reach Windows Advanced Options Menu Pictured Below:

Safe Mode
Safe Mode with Networking
Safe Mode with Command: At the prompt you would type the command to use
forsystem restore at the safe mode cmd prompt is:
%systemroot%\system32\restore\rstrui.exe
If these 3 tools don't work, you have one more you can try which is Last
Known Good Configuration.
Good luck,
CH
