Hi,
I have a Packard Bell Easynote laptop with Windows 7 (only got it at Christmas), and not so long ago I got a virus. I went to a computer shop and they said that I would need to restore my laptop to factory settings, which he started. I was in a rush, so as soon as I got home I put my laptop on charge and left.
Later, I opened my computer to find that it doesn't start up! It begins with the Packard Bell logo, then the 'starting windows' logo, before saying 'Setup is preparing your computer for first use'. After a few seconds, it comes up with this message:
"The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered and unexpected error. Windows installation cannot proceed. To install Windows, click 'OK' to restart the computer, and then restart installation"
Every time I restart the computer, the same message appears. I've all but given up hope, but if there was any way I get my laptop back I would appreciate it.
Cheers.
