a computer problem

Post by PsYch008 »

well, usually i am the one who helps everyone with their computer problems... but i am completely stumped by my laptop's behavior...

yesterday everything was fine. i changed nothing between yesterday and today... and today my machine will not boot in normal mode...


it boots in safe mode every time... but not normal mode...

i tried uninstalling my video drivers. made no difference. i tried doing a degrag in safe mode, made no difference...

can anyone give me something to try at least... im completely pissed....

thanks.

EDIT: i guess i should say what it does when trying to boot, it will just act like it is loading windows, then freeze at the loading screen and stay there, with no hard drive activity.

Do you have any siblings? if you do, hunt them down and start interogating them... play good cop, bad cop with your self, it always makes them scared and they will spill in no time :wink:

That has around a 47% chance of working although you only get one try then it cuts down to 23% and so on

lol, as much as i would like to understand this...

i got my pc to boot in normal mode after disabling the sound card (dont ask me what the ..... happened)

but when i got in the time was advanced on the clock and some other weird shit (making me think VIRUS)

still not sure, but at least i can boot normally now...

I'm assuming you've run anti- spyware & virus scans.
