look what my problem was about and maybe u can find something usefull:
i inserted a pc game disk on the computer that didnt work,actually before restarting it,and it couldn`t acces anything(there was a small line that was appearing and disappearing all the time)
than i remembered what i did before and imeddietaly took the cd out!
than it worked like before, it was so redicioulus!#!#!
so now i am gonna telling you some tipps if u didnt have the same problem:
if you can acces F8, and go one "safe mode" and if it would really work so the problem is fixed,
u now just have to go on the run meny
type "restore"
and make a backup now.
dont use the "restore the computer to the last known good config" meny
i always used it an it never worked
that is one of the useless aplications on windows.
and if nothing works go one the bios
(press del to run setup)
there u can install a new fresh windows but everything on you`re drive C: is gonna being deleted,things on the desktop,on mydocuments(everything)
but u can also use it on the normal way
just insert the disk and wait if u can acces the setup
there you can formate it without deleting anything
really i dont now why but everytime i use it
nothing is gonna being deleted.
please if something on this was usefull
please let me know
best wishes g.berisha
