Default Computer Help

I am pretty good with computers but I have hit a wall with a friends computer. When his computer tries to start up it says "Windows is loading files" with that white bar below it. It then goes to the normal loading screen with the green bar. After that it goes to a blank screen and no longer loads. I cant get the pc to load into Advance boot options by pressing F8, no safe mode, no nothing. I am stuck in Maine is my resources are limited, I tried making a bootable system recovery disk from my laptop for his computer but it doesn't work. It gets to a certain point in the process and freezes up. Does the recovery disk have to be specific to the computer its created on? Or is this a hardware issue?

Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

This is a Windows 7 laptop. Acer brand.
