If it doesnt beep then you have a problem with your RAM or your motherboard. Try reseat your RAM first.
When I had something very similar with my Toshiba C660 to what you are experiencing, it turned out to be that the hard drive was failing. I had it replaced and my repair shop was able to save all my data.
Hi There,
There are currently no easy ways to update a bios through linux at all - including live cd's. Your best bet is to make a bios update USB stick (or floppy depending on the age of the computer)
Here's a link to those instructions:

Alternatively, speaking from my own experience with a similar situation, you can take the hard drive out, use it in place of the usb stick, boot from it, update your bios, and go from there.
Testimonial: "Matt, exactly what I have been searching for, I am well advanced in years so will take me a while to configure this, I found the update OK but was a problem choosing the utility. WELL DONE & MANY THANKS Jim"

You need your Vista disk to re-install Vista.
If you don't want to go to the expense, download and install Ubuntu, its a free opterating system and now on version 10.4, its pretty good.

Try F8 upon start-up and use safe mode to boot then try a doing a system restore, it may have installed an update automatically that conflicts somehow
