Feel really supid here. I changed the powersetting on my display. this is what i did:
opened display, clicked on screen saver then power
Clicked on UPS
chose APC then back-ups
then hit configure
and then when i saved it the computer started shuttiing down and I couldn't get it to stop. Now the coputer will start then start shutting down. I don't know what to do. My start up disk doesn't work. I get an error message when I try and use it.
My computer is a Compaq presario with 60GB hardrive, CD-RW/DVD-ROM combo drive. The system is XP home.
Thanks for any help you can give me. You know the old story, money is tight and I don't want to have to spend it in a shop if I don't have to. Thanks again for reading this.
