Gonna need more information than that. There could be a million things causing that to happen.

Well let see, its a college laptop, and as soon as the wall paper hits my screen goes black, I can't do anything. Just black.
No mouse, no screen, no keypad controls.
It's pretty much just dead, and shitty.

Nope just turned it off and then this happened. The screen is also cut about 1/6th of the screen (4 inch black borders on windows logon screen)

You're just going to have to reformat then. If there is anything you want to save on there, attach that hard drive as a secondary hard drive to a desktop, and take the stuff off.

If all else fails, DBAN -> Install OS. But you would want to drain the HDD first. I don't know a solution though :[

Got this from google.
Quote: | 1) UNPLUG THE LAPTOP
2) REMOVE THE BATTERY
3) HOLD DOWN THE POWER BUTTON FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS TO 2 MINUTES
4) THEN PUT THE BATTERY BACK IN
5) START IT UP.. |
