I bought a computer with Windows Vista installed on it, and i decided to
install XP on it as well. I have been running XP and Vista fine for some
time, but randomly i get an error when i try to boot into Vista. I think i
may know what caused it, but i am not positive. I was adjusting my partitions
and adding more space to my Vista partition when a dialouge box popped up
saying there were some problems with the tables in the G: (Vista) partition.
So thinking that there was something wrong, i told it to fix them. Well,
after that, i couldnt boot into vista.
When i try to boot into Vista, i get a screen saying:
"Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the
cause. To fix the problem:
1. Insert your Windows installation disc and restart your computer.
2. Choose your language settings, and then click "Next."
3. Click "Repair your computer."
If you do not have this disc, contact your system administrator or computer
manufacturer for assistance.
File: \Windows\system32\winload.exe
Status: 0xc0000225
Info: The selected entry could not be loaded because the application is
missing or corrupt."
The problem with the first part is i dont have the disc, which eliminates
that way to fix it. And the problem with the second part is my computer
manufacturer not going to help me because i bought the computer off of ebay
and i dont have a warranty on it anymore.
So im not exactly sure what i can do....i have a backup of my files on my
external hard drive, but not my programs, which would be a hassel to
reinstall and download. I am also thinking of just ditching XP because i
almost never use it, but that doesnt effect anything. Im stuck.
