DV9700 laptop won't start

[Birdcolonel]

I have an Pavilion DV9700 laptop with a Centrino processor and Nvideo.  It was freezing and acting funny so I used the System Recovery DVD and things worked for a few hours then the screen blanked.  I restarted and got the HP Welcome page then it went blank and in the upper left corner I get ERR2ERR3.  Does anyone have any  ideas what is causing this?

You have to use Bootrec.exe tool to solve your problem. The Bootrec.exe tool supports the following options. Apply the appropriate option for your situation.

Note: If the startup problem creating the boot configuration data can not resolve through again, you can export and delete the BCD, and then run the option again. In this way, make sure that the boot configuration data to be recreated. To do this in the command prompt in Windows Recovery Environment, the following commands:

bcdedit / export C: \ BCD_Backup
• c:
• boot cd
• attrib bcd-s-h-r
• ren c: \ boot \ bcd bcd.old
• bootrec / RebuildBcd
