Hi Guys,
my toshiba satellite p300 wont start up properly. I turn it on and it loads (past the toshiba part) then says Windows Error recovery it then gives me 2 choices -
"start up windows normally"
"Launch Startup Repair (recommeneded)"
i click the recommeneded and it says Windows Boot Manager
Windows Failed to start a recent hardware or software change might be the cause. to fix the problem:
1. Insert ur windows installation disc and restart your computer
2. choose ur lanauge settings and then click "next"
3. Click Repair your Computer.
Status: 0xc000000f
Info: The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccesible.
So yea, what do i do lol? Vista came preloaded with the laptop so i dont have a copy. I called up a shop and they said its got nothing to do with vista and they can fix it no problem for a $180 charge. If i start it up normally it doesnt go past that Windows screen it just like idols on it for hours.
I have no discs to the laptop (at least i cant find them) its only 10 months old and in very good condition.
Thanks guys.
Also any ideas as to why this happened?
Only thing i downloaded during the time frame was Vent.
