Hello, my sons laptop is stuck at the "starting windows screen" stays there for ages then just goes back and does it all over again. had a good search on tintenet and tried all the advice, boot in safe mode, hold alt/f10, hold f8. Nothing seems to work, any help will be greatly appreciated

Do you have a set of recovery discs? If yes, boot your laptop from disc #1

If they don't work either, test the hard drive with a bootable CD containing the hard drive maker's diagnostic software for DOS. The links are here: http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=287

Create the CD from the diagnostic software ISO file with IMGBUrn: http://www.filehippo.com/download_imgburn/

Boot your laptop from that CD and the diagnostic software will open.
