My acer laptop got a blue screen of doom. After that, rebooting would not work. The bios does the acer splash screen and then does not show bios posts. Then the laptop says the computer was not shutdown properly and asks which mode to start windows. After choosing, it freezes. I was able to start up in Safe Mode once and chkdsk found that a .dll file was corrupted. Then when I tried to run Symantec's system recovery it found the whole system32 folder corrupted.
For some reason I can't boot from cd-rom and I don't have a floppy drive. It posts when I try to do a network boot but it does not work and is not an option right now (I'm on a school network).
Does anyone have a solution for reformatting the Harddrive? Or would I have to buy a new one? Does harddrive failure explain why it can't boot from CD?
