Daughters laptop has crashed and gone onto the black screen, does anyone know how to put it right, tried safe mode she says but none the better
could be hard drive failure ... or need a reset .. trouble with reset is data is lost .. what Operating system is it ? ... I doubt a hardware failure tbh .. but you need to tread carefully as you could lose everything on it ... If its Windows 8 or 8.1 .. makes it a little more difficult but manageable .. if you need it looking at msg me on facebook Pete (is it you? ) ... Ill sort but will need it overnight and will discuss on there oh Dazed btw
Are you sure the hard drive hasn't just unseated it's self mine did that once. It slides in from the side and had just come out by a mm or so. As soon as I shoved it back in jobs a gud un. Mine was a Dell btw. Good luck
