Default Recovery problems, 32bit


My laptop took a mean spill and lost it's LCD screen. I repaired the
screen and it began to give me errors. At the moment it's missing a
"system32\config\system". I found my Vista recovery disk, it loads the
files and shows me a Microsoft loading bar. It passes the bar and stops
at a black screen with the arrow cursor on it. Is this supposed to
happen? How long do it take for the disk to show me the recovery
options?

More than just your LCD screen was damaged. Whether it is the motherboard,
the hard drive, the optical drive or a combination of components is
impossible to say without physically examining the laptop. Either contact
the laptop mftr.'s tech support for repair/replacement or take it to a
competent local computer tech. This will not be someone from a
BigComputerStore/GeekSquad type of place.
