It will not load up properly. It makes it to the windows loading screen then it restarts again. It could go on like that for hours if I let it. I have tried all the modes; safe mode, last config' etc. Yet it still doesn't work. I have charged it properly so I know that isn't the problem. Unfortunately, I have lost my recovery disk, and i can't get hold of one. However, I would prefer to fix it mysef if can, before I buy one. <BR />Any ideas?<BR /><BR />Cheers.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 04 Apr 2007 16:59:27 GMT BAGELHEAD 2007-04-04T16:59:27Z hard drive problem? https://community.sony.pl/t5/pcs-accessories/hard-drive-problem/m-p/123842#M79086 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hello, hope you can help.<BR />I have a Sony Vaio VGN-A115Z.
