ASUS G50V
If it will boot I can get it to the start page and from there it will just stall nothing works the hour glass just sits still. I did pull the HD and put it in an enclosure it seems to be in tact, I have tried the recovery disc with no luck. Memory? Mother board? Yea it is running Vista |

Quoted:
Do you have a Vista repair disk? Sounds like something in the windows system files isn't happy. That or take it back out of the computer and connect it to another computer and do a system file check\checkdsk. I did do a check when i had it out it came back OK
