My computer will not boot--have tried system repair, restore, safe mode won't work, etc. All tests come out normal, no problems--memory ok, etc. but screen just goes black with one white arrow.
Can I just install a 2nd hard drive, install Vista on it, then access the old hard drive via the new drive? I don't want to do a clean install because I don't want to lose my email & files. I do not have an external backup but I do have restore points on the hard drive but the computer cannot find them.
