System Recovery and Recovery Media

[jepkdh]

The laptop is a Satellite A205-S5847.

I chose the restore to out of the box configuration and I used the two Recovery and Applications/Driver discs which includes the Widows Vista Home Premium.  After running the two discs, my screen says that windows failed to start.  I am told to

1. Insert your windows installation disc and restart.

2. Choose your language and the click next

3. Click repair computer.

Then it says

File: windows\system\winload.exe

Status: OxcOOOOOOf

Info: The selected entry could not be loaded because the application is missing or corrupt.

I don't know what to do next.  Help please?

Seems like Windows Vista did load and is trying to start  BTW, those are zeros (not ohs) in the Status field: 0xC000000F,

I would just start the whole process over again.

I'm having the same problem and the same error message. I'm trying to do the recovery from the hard drive (No discs) and I have done it 10 times and it gets stuck during the partitioning part and then it gives me that same error message. Can you help?
