Just wanted to make a quick post about this to tell you why i probably wont be on much in a while (on my iTouch btw). When restarting my pc due to it lagging badly it now suddenly wont boot, it just stays black screened :S so i will probably have to get a new one for christmas. Apparently this is a reocurring problem with hp pavilion computers with no proper fix yet -Grand3

Explain exactly what your pc is doing/showing on screen, I may be able to help sounds like a hard drive crash though

When i turn it on, the loading screen comes up, but it doesnt boot. Apparently some sorcery with holding in the power buttton works, but for me it didn't :S

I can, but theres no safemode. Also now it goes to a blank login screen w/ cursor... Gonna try some kind of reformating i guess. Also, could you get on skype? Easier to talk on there

Not my fault :/ Heard something about a chipset failure in EVERY pavilion series pc.. Paying for the fix would probably cost the same as a new pc tho.

Mhm :/ EDIT: Ooh, when I waited for a bit something opened, "select your keyboard input language" then another one like 10mins layer but it doesn't let me click anything.. This is gonna take a while.. EDIT2: Tried it again, made it to the second dialogue window but it just has the "loading" cursor thingy and doesn't let me press anything. The window says System recovery options [x] Use recovery tools that can help fix problems starting windows etc.
[ ] Restore your computer using a system image etc.etc. .. xD Might be that it doesn't let me load the backup from my hard drive (i.e. It's broken)?
