System: Sony VAIO VGN-AW31S/B
Preinstalled OS: Windows Vista
So I was installing Windows 7 on this laptop, was going smoothly, all drivers, updates, VAIO utilities and software was installed. Basically a fully complete reinstall.
I then began to take files off my removable HDD, was all going fine, but half way through the 80 odd GB transfer BSOD flashed and then it restarted.
After the BSOD I let it reset itself and reboot, selected normal boot, the "Starting Windows" and "Microsoft Corporation" text come up followed by the windows logo, waited a minute or so then BSOD came up again... It hasn't been able to boot since.
Now when you boot normally the "Starting Windows" and "Microsoft Corporation" text come up, but not the 4 balls that fly in to present the windows logo. When you boot into safe mode, you just a black screen. When doing both these things the HDD light is showing activity but nothing ever happens.
I've tried: Startup Repair (I did this twice, second time was ALOT longer, but both times it did nothing), CHKDSK <mountpoint>: /f (this gets stuck at 66% on "stage 2 of 3" but HDD still shows activity), SFC/SCANNOW (this just says it's already pending, and it will run when windows boots... or something).
To make this worse I have no images or restore points to fall back on :shadedshu
I do have Paragon Rescue Kit 11 which I have yet to try but I don't really know what I can do whith it tbh, and a mate of mine has LiveBoot. Not exactly sure what LiveBoot is cause I've never used it, but he says it might help...
Cheers to anyone that can help, I am completely lost...
