Screen working in Bios, but no windows load screen

Postby Amilo m1450g » Fri Jan 22, 2010 7:37 pm

Hi

I'm seriously hope someone in her can help me with this issue.
My Amilo m1450g won't start windows xp or boot for windows cd. When i start the computer the bios load screen shows up and i can go into the bios setup menu without any problems. But when the screen should turn to the windows load screen it just stays black. The same happens when i try to boot from the windows xp cd. When i set it to boot from the cd drev, i get a sceen saying "press [esc] to enter boot..." and no matter i press esc or not it just stays black. How do if fix this?

That's really strange.
Did you already try the hardware reset, see FAQ?
If that doesn't help, then I'd recommend to try a Linux live cd, e. g. Ubuntu, just to see if that can start (and display something on the screen).

Regards
