If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears. will even give a reward for any help that fix's this "putrified, dryd shell of MEATRING SPLITTING, NON-GREEZED, NO KISS AFTERWARDS , DRAWING & QUARTERING !. <<OUCH!>> " :sad2: :sad2: :whip: :yell: :gun: :rant2: :sad4: :sad3: :sad4: :rant2: :gun::gee: :loser:

It's not a good idea to mix electronics and Goop... :p

Hope you get it all sorted out soon. What version of Windows are you on? Can you get into Safe Mode and maybe restore?

I have WIN7 and dont know how to get into safe mode and Ive tried to do a restore w/ manufactures disc but I keep getting stuck right after the "welcome" screen. It starts to show desktop but gets stuck as its tryn to Load and...omfg..I just typed out a paragraph or 3 only to get an error when tryn to post!! *sigh* One of the mssg. I keep getting is > BOOTMGR is missing< followed by > press Ctrl+Alt+Delete to restart< and that just brings me back to boot screen.
!!! SIEGE ON !!!

Got my computer working. Not really sure how I did it but got into safe mode and did a system restore and everything seems to be working fine. Have yet to restart computer & see if windows still boots. Thanks to UncleSham for that link. :):party::gee::banana::thumbup::p

glad i could be of help . ive done that a few times and it seemed pretty straight forward.


i figured you'd work it out. :)


oh yeah . ive also taken to creating a restore point before i try anything i dont fully understand or if i find a setting i know works . its good to lock down a safe spot now and then for future restores. ya never know ...
