umm
* What operating system are you using? For example if you’re using Microsoft Windows, what version are you using? Click here for information about determining the version of Windows you’re using.
* If you're getting an error what is the error message?
* Basic details on your computer, manufacturer (Dell, HP, custom built), how much RAM, CPU (Intel/AMD), etc.
* If you're having a problem with a software program, game, or utility what version is it? If you're using Windows this information can often be determined by pressing the F1 key.
* If you're having problems with a hardware device such as a printer, modem, video card, etc. mention if you have tried the latest drivers.
* When did the issue start occurring? Did you recently install a program, new hardware device, or visit a web page?

Alright so I uninstalled Nvidia and used system restore. I can start up not but now i have HORRIBLE graphics.
