Problem with daughters laptop

Options
Hope some kind person can help!

My daughters laptop isn't loading properly. Have brought it home with me and put in the manufacturers recovery disc.
Now I have a command window but don't know what to do next.

At the top of the window it says the following..
X:\windows\system32\cmd.exe - startnet.cmd

  • if I were to assume it runs on Windows... then you should have many options to try to repair.

    you could at the command line try typing: sfc /scannow
    which will run a systems file check

    but the problem could be almost anything. More details will be useful!

    Friendly greeting!
  • Have left it alone, it now says
    Windows PE has been booted ok....not loading additional drivers from the share.......done!
    The following drives and volumes are available in the system

    MicrodiskPart version 6.1.7600
    Copyright {C} 1999-2008 Microsoft Corporation
    On Computer: MININT-IOM1573

    sorry if I'm vague, havent got a clue what I'm doing.
  • Forgot to say, problem started when laptop just stopped loading, just gave option to press F2
  • back-tracking...
    what do you mean by "isn't loading properly"?
    switch it off.
    switch it on again (no disc in drive)
    what happens?
    Friendly greeting!
  • Make and model?
