help with laptop

#1 Postby OtherHD » Wed Jul 06, 2005 6:26 pm

*sigh* I think my laptop's fried..

When I start it, the Windows start up screen comes up (the one where I can go into setup), and after that there is a black screen with a flashing cursor in the top left corner, then it changes to another completely black screen...and it just stays like that.

:roll: Any ideas on what to do??

Sounds like a boot disk or HD failure.
