I f-disked my hard drive and it came up fine and I couldn’t get the resolution right, but then I realized I hadn’t install the drivers yet, duh, so I was playing in the advanced adapter settings and I think I some how selected an option that was something like don’t show display or something like that, and now I can hear it boot and everything and I see the first screen that displays ram, etc and then before it gets to the logon page it goes black and I can’t get it back. I have no idea what to do and I’ve tried switching monitors to see if I could get it to work and it won’t and I tried my monitor on a different computer and it’s not that, so I don’t know how to fix it and now I have no computer so I’m kind of screwed.

Im not sure what you are trying to say. What exactly do you mean by f-disked
you hard drive? What did you do while you were in fdisk. if you went in to
fdisk and deleted partions, then yeah you are not going to see anything
after displaying ram etc. your computer needs to have system files to boot
up.
