I'm guessing you have already tried clicking retry a few times. If that plus shutting down and trying again does not get it and you have no restore disks you probably need an expert in hands on computer repair which is still cheaper than a new machine.
I have a think pad that decided it was dead that came back to life by taking out the battery pack and waiting a few min and putting it back. I don't know why or if it would solve your problem but it is certainly worth trying. Work carefully and of course work with it unplugged. Obviously don't tpuch anything back there with metal and basicly don't touch anything but the battery holding case."
