OS: Vista Home Premium


Vista Unable to Boot...

Hi all,

I have an INSPIRON 1525 running Vista Home Premium. Bought about 6 months ago. My Laptop was working fine one night and the next time I am unable to boot my laptop. I've tried just about everything. I used Startup Repair, Safe Mode, System Restore, and Booting up normally. The one problem is that I don't want to completely reformat my drive since I have lots of important documents on it.

Any help would be Apperciated!!!
