I tried to boot into safe mode and on the sofeware cd, but nothing works. Can someone give me a step by step process to solve this problem. Thank you

  Try a startup repair if you have the Vista DVD.

  If no DVD of Vista, try this:

  Download the ISO on the provided link and do a repair of the disc.

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  You can make a tool to restart system, System Restore, etc. with it.

  Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

  ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html
