Hi
Running Windows XP Home.(dell)
PC about 4 yrs old. It just got very ill last night.
Mon night, my 1 yr free subscription to EzArmor firewall and virus
scanner expired.
I enabled the windows xp firewall and then proceeded to download AVG,
which
installed fine, ran a full virus check, all ok.
Tue night, downloaded Kerio firewall. Installed ok, said needed to
reboot to complete install.
Some apps didnt shut down very gracefully, anyway didnt shutdown
completely (just blackscreened)
so did a hard reset and on restart, after the dell.com splashscreen it
just goes to a blackscreen indefinitely.
I can break out and attempt to start in Last known good mode or safe
mode, but in either case when
it goes to the 2nd page, to ask which OS you want to start (just XP in
my case) hitting enter to start has
no effect, nor does pressing any other key. That screen just remains.
Have to hard reset each time to shutdown/restart.
Any ideas what I should try next ?
Thks in advance.
