Any one can help me out as to why my OS(Vista in this case) isn't starting. I get the blue screen and the it performs a memory dump and says I have to insert Vista cd and repair.Can anyone explain to me whats the problem with possible solutions
thank you.

There are so many possibilities for that to happen. Did you try to reinstall to see if the problem persists?

not entirely sure about ur prob... try giving us more information, eg the blue screen screen shot, pc specs, etc

if its the normal BSOD, i would suggest checking ur RAM.. try taking it out and placing it in again, tightly..

sry not good in computer stuff
BSOD?
I'll consider reinstalling if I only I have no other options.

Specifically whats specs you want? and how do I get it?
Cant even run on safe mode.

If that's the case then you should give more information on what the BSOD says. Did you install any new hardware/software prior to that? Did you try safe mode or use the restore point, etc?

Cant safe mode
Driver file 32/something missing.
Nope never did any hardware or software installing that I know off.
BSOD?What does it stands for?

You need to repeatedly press F8 while booting up and select "safe mode" from the option list. If you can't do that then it's a bit hard to troubleshoot further.

BSOD= Blue Screen of Death.

I experienced it before when i installed a 3rd party software that hacks into my system, then i experienced BSOD after i restart pc. Keep coming out BSOD after i typed password and login. Then I went into save mode and deleted the software, tada! it's done...

When BSOD comes out, you see what object that causes BSOD in the blue screen.

Or maybe u can refer to this link:
