I had a problem with my broadband not being recognised, which it has been fine, there was in the upgrades a upgrade which shows that it needed to be started ( which it had) for it to be installed
so I decided on a system restore which just hangs and didn't do anything, now it boots up to a desktop with part of my programs missing, but I am unable to use them or select another system restore or any option, after a few seconds I have no option but to switch off the computer.
I don't really wish to do a complete recovery as I had windows 7 on it when I bought the sony vaio and purchased a upgrade to windows 8 from Microsoft. any help-advice- ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sam
