Hi obunchyo--

Here are 6 options: The first 2 should fix this, but if they don't go
through the other 4 one at a time and they should fix this. None of them
takes longer than a few minutes, and you lose nothing.

1) Try running SFC. SFC is system file checker. Essentially although it
has been refined from XP to Vista to Win 7 it scans thousands of files on
your system and if there is a corrupted file it replaces it with an intact
one. You lose nothing. It's a very useful tool and underused.

2) Follow the Directions in this MSKB:

How to determine and to recover from Winsock2 corruption in Windows Server
2003, in Windows XP, and in Windows Vista
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811259

Start>type cmd at search box>right click cmd when pops up>run as
administrator>at cmd prompt type: sfc /scannow (space before the forward
slash or "whack" as softies call it).

If SFC doesn't fix this use directions are below--and I'm giving them to
you because the Startup Repair tools aren't just for situations when Vista
No Boots despite Microsoft's party line>they are often successful in
repairing significant systemic problems and you lose nothing.

3) 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:

http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Win...f3f351033.mspx

4) 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.

http://vistahomepremium.windowsreins...airstartup.htm

Those are:

bootrec /fixmbr
bootrec /fixboot
bootrec /rebuild BCD

5) If my second option doesn't work, then try System restore from the
Startup Repair list.

6) 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.

Good luck,

CH
