Ok, so was on my laptop yesterday. Everything was fine and dandy, shut it down before bed last night. Woke up this morning turned my laptop on, windows came up for about 3 seconds then went black. I tried everything to get it to work, so I went on safe mode and made a new account to log on and it works fine.? Am I making any sense?laugh frown What should I do with the other account to get it to come up?huh

Put in timeout, give it a stern talking too and tell it, if it does it again you are going to spank it.

I guess I am not a geek.

does your laptop charge from an internal lithium/etc battery?
If it does it just means ur power ran out, u turned it back on and it was charged so u didnt actually need to make a new login ID
just a thought

Yeah, guess that is what I am gonna end up having to do. I was hoping it wasn't anything too serious. I did a disk clean-up and defragmented and ran virus scan, ad-aware and everything thing else i could think of while I was on safe mode. Grrrrrr computers suck balls.:tongue:

Did your laptop go into energy-saving mode? Some laptops will either go into suspend mode or something similar at a moment's notice if not configured properly.

You'd have to go into your Control Panel and check your power saving settings to find this out.
