Thanks... I backed up all of his personal files and rebooted to attempt the Sony system recovery and was greeted with the "missing operating system" error message. I am attempting a full restore to see if it will rewrite the MBR, if not, I would imagine that it's a drive error and will have to replace it. I didn't have the confidence in the add/remove process since the system restore (Windows) didn't eliminate the problem. It appears that's it's taking the full restore while it didn't the "C" drive only option. I guess I'll just watch and see what happens.
Thanks for you help!
