So here's the deal, the computer won't start up. It automatically goes to the Startup Repair, but none of the options will do anything. It just restarts itself and goes back to the same page.
I have tried loading normally, in safe mode, last known good configuration, etc. There are no available restoration points shown. After disabling the computer from shutting down immediately on system failure I got a blue screen that says: System Failure
Catastrophic Failure (0x 8000FFFF)
The initial session process or system process terminated unexpectedly with a status of (0x00000000) (0xc0000001 0x0010042c). The system has been shut down.
The error details given in startup repair are: Problem event name: StartupRepairV2

The computer isn't mine, it's my boyfriends so I'm not sure exactly what the specs are on the comp itself. I just know its Windows Vista home edition, and that's about it. Another big issue is that they don't have any of the Windows discs, apparently Future Shop told them they wouldn't need them
Is there anything we can do other than go out and buy a new Windows system and reinstall?
