Darkness befell the land

...or at least my computer!

I've been off line for two days... and I'm STILL off line... as my computer has decided to switch off and now all I can get is a dark screen with a line that says the computer is missing some abbreviation which I don't know what is and that I need to re-boot with my cd boot disc. My computer is a laptop ... one of those that come WITHOUT a bloody cd boot disc!!! I'm on someone else's computer and won't be online until I figure out what the hell is wrong with it and what to do about it. I've got 2 billion tons of stuff on that computer I SOOO do not wanna lose. Later (maybe!!!)

  1. Sorry to hear about this dilemma.

    Have you tried booting holding down F8?

    That should put it in safe mode.

    1. Yes I have but it wasn't any help as it just reverted back to dark screen. I'll try and see what I can do about it over the weekend. Thanks for the tip, Phantom.
