Hello guys,so I have a VERY strange problem with my laptop and I want to know if I can repair this thing, if I should reinstall the Windows or if its a problem within the laptop. So my problem is: When I start the laptop it enters on a black screen then it starts to lighten up with a blue stripe on it, here is a picture: http://imgur.com/a/mrgX4
My laptop specs are:
Laptop: Acer Aspire 5920
GPU: Nvidia Geforce 8600m GS 256 MB
CPU: Intel core duo T5450
RAM: 2gb
Also I want to know if I can install any other windows besides Vista on this thing.
Thank you guys for your time.
 
IDK if it's a panel problem, because I can enter in the bios and I can select auto repair,but it will stay like that,trying to repair it forever, so..IDK
 
There is nothing wrong with the screen if you can see BIOS Setup on it, it's Windows that's screwed.

Factory Recovery should sort it.

Supported Windows versions on that model are XP, Vista & Win7:

Windows 7 is much better than the infamously unpredictable Windows Vista, way better with memory management too. Worthwhile upgrade if you can still get hold of a genuine copy.
