All I know to do is the repair install. If that isn't working then we need someone else to give some input and having them read these 4 pages is useless as what needs to be done is get it booted to Windows.

And now it gets weirder.

I had my CPU unplugged from the power cord..but on...for the last hour.

I just went to it...what do you know the screen saver is on.
I move the mouse....and I have a screen that is not blank...I can see my desktop.
I connect the power cord...it goes blank...I unconnect...still blank.

[bluecountry]

Is a repair install possible or impossible given the circum?

[evilfantasy]

Like I said I am 99.99% sure this is something other then what we have been looking for. "Something" is going on and it needs to be looked at by someone with tools. Or try the windows forum. It may just be a bad power supply.

[bluecountry]

If it's a bad power supply...what would I do in that case?

[evilfantasy]

It depends on if it is the power cord or if it's something inside of the computer. Sorry not trying to be difficult, just when I get outside of malware issues I'm a bit lost myself. I'll see if someone is online to have them have a look at this post for some better input.

I have been summoned!

Is this a Laptop or a Desktop computer?

If you think it's a bad PSU (Power Supply Unit), is there any way you might be able to borrow one from a friend and see if it works or not.



However, it might not be a problem with the PSU.

And now it gets weirder.

Do you mean to say you unplugged the computer and it was still on?

Just trying to help.

I still don't see how the computer can remain on if you unplug it...

[evilfantasy]

Whoops!!! It's a lappy. Which is another reason I suggested taking it to a shop as they will have the proper tools needed...

I just tried to start the computer...the opening windows prompt came on...after that...a blank screen.

I rebooted....same thing.

This is a laptop...it has three green lights on the front panel.
The far left is on...the middle is very dim....and the far right is off aside from an occasional short blink.

I am very concerned....and worried...perhaps I deleted the wrong key?
Battery problem?
Seems weird this would happen after last night.

[Carbon Dudeoxide]

Ah....That's a problem......I did a search in this post for the word...

Anything else about the apperance of the blank screen?

[evilfantasy]

Nope that's it. It seems like everything we did, despite the 5 pages wasn't much actually, just made things worse!

[Carbon Dudeoxide]

Just an idea (maybe because I haven't read all the four pages) but, if the screen is dark but you can still see something if you hold a light to it, the screen inverter may be damaged.

I wish bluecountry would STOP calling his computer a "CPU".

[bluecountry]

Thanks crew.

First, my computer is a labtop.

Second, I saw the screen when I unplugged the power cord, having it run on battery.

Third, I just turned on my computer.  I saw the screen.....then it went blank.
     So I did your suggestion...I took my desklamp and shined it to the black screen and guess what.....I saw the screen...the windows...the desktop...but faintly...hardly enough to do work on there...but enough to see.

What do you think the issue and resolution is?
