Hi all. I'm running inspiron 1720 with vista. Yesterday I was going to install gta 4, so I needed more free space. I'd removed many programs, and one of them happened to be perfect disc. Then I had to get SP1, and it seemed to be successfully installed, but while rebooting i got this frightful PDBOOT.EXE not found - skiping autocheck. And then it came out with the following:
!! 0xc019036 !! 1199/93860 (netlogon.dll)
And stopped frozen. What can I do with it?
PS I need help really fast, cause I'm leavind tomorrow and was gonna take my laptop with me. So, please...

Try booting up in safe mode (press F8 when you get to the splash screen) and then try doing a system restore to an earlier point in time.

also something to think about, I know and understand your in a hurry, but if you post the same question in several differnet forums it can actually make it harder and longer to get help. I just did a google of PDBOOT.EXE not found - skiping autocheck to see if I can find other people with the same problem to see what they did, and I got 2-3 forums right off the bat with you asking the same question. It then takes me twice as long sorting through all the forums seeing which ones are you asking the same question and which ones are other people with a similar issue and possible solutions to it. I understand your in a hurry and need an answer faster, and sometimes asking in multiple forums can make it faster for you to find an answer, but it makes it harder for us to find an answer, so at the least you might make a mention of I posted at another site and didnt get an answer there or something along those lines. anyway, hope you get it fixed, update us if you fix it or not. :huh:

But..
StartupRepair shows up with an error.
Trying to load a backup i got (sorta my free translation) something like
...unexpected error...
destructing error (0x8000FFFF)
I've also been trying bootrec from command prompt, but it seems to lead to nothing. Dunno what's going on now.

If Startup Repair doesn't fix it, then the next step would be a bootable hard drive diagnostic (the next most likely issue).
Use a bootable hard drive diagnostic from the manufacturer of your hard drive. The test usually takes a couple of hours, so you may want to run the Quick/Short version first.

The Quick/Short version only checks parts of the disk, so it's not as accurate as the Long/Advanced test. If it fails the Quick/Short test, the drive is failing - if it passes the Quick/Short test it doesn't mean that the drive is good. You'll have to run the Long/Advanced test to verify that.

But how do I get that diagnostic? When I was reading startup repair logs, it was reported that system disc was corrupt, but I'd been browsing it all right with Media Direct, and there were no reasons for its corruption:(
