I have Vista 32. Last night I opened up my computer and everything came up ok, but I couldn't connect with the internet. After a few attempts to re-connect I gave up and shut the computer. I think I may have still been in the area where you look for wireless connections. The next time I opened up my computer it was in some sort of diagnostic mode and I can't seem to get it out. I have a screen come up that says choose a language and then when I select US and "next" it takes me to the System Recovery Options screen. I select Startup Repair and only get a message saying "Startup Repair could not detect a problem." I've tried the System Restore, but can't get anywhere with that option because it says I have not set up a restore point. And unfortunately I didn't create a back-up "restore" DVD when I had the chance, so that option is not available either.
I went to the MSDOS command prompt and it appears to have the default drive set as "X". I ran the "dir" command and see I still have over 700 files in the "X" drive and also a number of files in the "C" drive. I'm not able to switch over to the "C" drive to try to give a command to get back to Windows thru MSDos.
Is there a shortcut or hotkey or something that I can do to get back into Windows? I'm just about beating my head against the wall. I know my stuff is still there I just can't get out of diagnostic mode.
Any wisdom anyone has to offer on this would be greatly appreciated.
