    Hi Guys,

    Just wondering about this problem I have. I get a blank screen before the start up. Safe mode doesn't work. I can hear the windows start up noise but nothing happens.

    I think its something got to do with resoultion because I was on the laptop and the resolution went funny so I manually knocked off the laptop!

    Any one helo me on this cause I have a project due this week..Talk about bad timing !!

    Cheers,

    SF

    try selecting safe mode next time - [edit] what do you mean not work, what do you see ?
    press F8 etc

    if you see nothing at all then it may be the backlight , try connecting a monitor to the laptop
