Gateway Laptop will not boot.

[Staticstriker]

Well. This morning I turned on my Gateway Laptop (Model MD7818u) and I did not hear the fan turn on, so I restarted it and the fan turned on but after the gateway screen it shows this error "Windows failed to start. A recend Hardware or software change might be the cause.
And it gives me the option to "Launch startup repair" or start up windows normally. I did both of them and it just stays on the Microsoft Corporation screen with the green loading bar... Can anyone help?
Also I did not change anything with the system. It worked all day yesterday.

Oh and the specs are:
4 GB RAM, 500 GB hard drive, 15''6 screen. And it runs Vista home premium

Bump... Anyone please?

I turned on the Gateway laptop numerous times and I noticed the CPU Cooling fan in the back turns on when it gets to the Gateway logo and then turns off on the error screen and then I choose either "Launch Startup repair" or Start windows normally, and then it freezes on the microsoft corporation screen without the cooling fan turning on.

Just went to geek squad and this guy told me to order this "Gateway Recovery disk" <-- Well I just got one and tried to load it on boot up but then it still gets stuck on the Microsoft Corporation screen.... Anyone please help?
