Hi
I'm sure this same problem has occurred multiple times to multiple people, but I've been trying everything I know to solve it.
Every time I turn on my computer I get the MSI screen but then the screen goes black with one white flashing cursor in the upper left corner.
I CAN get into BIOS but that hasn't proved helpful as of yet. I've unplugged every external device except the monitor but it still occurred. I tried unplugging my extra harddrive and DVD drive but to no avail. Every post I've read has told me that it's probably a problem with my main hard drive, but that has 120 GB of precious data that I would be loathe to give up.
To make the problem worse I CAN'T get into safe mode and I DON'T have the original XP CD. Never have.
