    Hey, the other night my laptop shut itself down as the battery power went. Since then the laptop will not boot-up properly, the xp screen pops up with the thingy moving at the bottom, then after that a blue screen pops up for a split second and then I have a screen offering me to go to safe mode, safe mode with networking and last known good configuration.

    When I select one of these options the same thing just happens again :mad: :mad: :mad

    Can anybody offer me some advice???

    Did you install anything onto the Laptop recently i.e. drivers? burn yourself a copy of knoppix and see if it boots.

    If not then its more than likly a hardware issue this would involve testing the hard drive / memory etc...

    If you in Dublin, drop me a PM, i'll get it fixed for a nominal fee.

    Cheers, Joe
