Need some serious help from computer experts.

Having issues with my pc.

Started this week when you switch oc on it starts to boot up for a few seconds and then switches off and then tries to restart. This goes on and on and then when it does start and boot up properly i end up with a black screen with a white mouse cursor that i cant move.

Also none of the f keys work when booting up to get into any menus.

Please please help me people.

Boot into safe mode........choose the option with system restore........and roll back to one of last weeks saved points.

Not sure which PC you have.....let me know and I'll tell you how to get into the boot mode selector.

Is this a laptop?

Have you tried an external keyboard to enable you to get into the BIOS?

Managed to get it to boot and not do the switch off and on thing but now in the nlack screen with mouse cursor that wont move.

I am guessing with the on off thing and the black screen something is seriously wrong with it.

Are you using a ps2 or USB keyboard? Your bios may have disabled USB on startup for some reason. Try a PS2 keyboard if possible.

You could also try finding your CMOS jumper and resetting your BIOS which may help.

Do the lights on the keyboard come on when you boot?

Is that the little battery on the motherboard? If yes i have already tried that.

I only have a battery low light on the usb keyboard.

Why does it require a battery?

okay, i just had that problem as well. nothing works other than the cursor/pointer/mouse on a blank black screen. i did everything posted online to fix the problem (the f8, safe mode thingy and everything). nothing worked though so i tried experimenting and clicking stuffs on the keyboard. the miraculous thing happened. after clicking and doing almost nothing to the computer, something worked. it totally did work in my case so i hoped it works with yours as well. it's not the expert/computer geek solution but it solved my problem anyway so here it is...

1) press shift several times until the sticky keys window appears
2) click the link that'll lead to ease of access center
3) click cancel on the the bottom right corner of the set up sticky keys window
4) click control panel on the upper left corner (beside the make your computer easier to use title)
5) on the computer settings menu choose the recovery icon (make sure that the view is by either large or small icons for easier access)
6) click open system restore
7) click next on the bottom right corner until the button finish appears, then click it. (just follow everything the window says that will lead you to recovering your previous system in a certain time)
8) let it do its job and wait until your computer restarts
