I boot up with cd and do a Starup Repair but it stll gives me black screen
with the mouse arrow. The details of the repair is # of root causes = 1 and
all the error codes are 0x0
The last sentence it says Root causes found:-
Boot status indicate that the OS booted successfully

Reading throiugh this forum I also do a scannow at
c:>sfc /scannow but it gives me a message that "Windows Resource Protection
could not perform the requested operation"

Just wonder what can I do next to get my vista going as it is still giving
me the black screen with the mouse arrow.

All help much appreciated

Might be an obvious thing to suggest, but how long did you wait? Sometimes
patience is the key, eg if it's running a background 'Chkdsk' etc.
 
Either in Safe Mode or Advance Boot Menu >safe mode, it will start loading a
bit thenthe black screen will appears with the mouse arrow only. Alt/Ctlr/Del
-does not bring the task manager up. Any ideas....thanks

Sometimes a faulty bit of hardware can cause this. You could try
disconnecting all peripherals from the machine, and then try again.
