Evil XP Prob by waveydavey 2004-12-14 09:39:25
XP Pro on a friends dads laptop (sheesh). Boots ok, but screen black, no icons or taskbarMouse pointer visible and responsive. Rightclick no response. CtlAltDel no response. Safe mode - same but with safemode text in corners as expected. Mouse pointer visible and moving.
Win-R - no response. Win-E ditto.
Any ideas ?
