I know theres plent of helpful and nice people on gamespot so i thought id try and get my problem sorted through the forums before i request professional help. Il be honest i dont know much about PCs but heres my problem. -I start up my pc and it goes to a page saying windows did not start successfully. then it goes on to 'start windows normally'. -It tries to do this but then a page comes up after a while of blank screen saying 'a problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer' . It says the video driver failed to initialize and dumps the physical memory and restarts all over again. I have not to my knowledge made any installations or hardware updates and it was working fine a few days ago. Any help would be sweet. Dell Pentium 4 processor using 37" TV with VGA Cable
what Windows do u have ? if vista put in the Windows disc boot from it and repair your installation. if it does not fix it you will have to format. Sry
nonono first try, turning computer off, turning on and holding delete key, clicking save and exit, y, it should reboot, and it should work, if not message me
Iv got windows xp but i never updated it because i dont think it was a legit version. So my guess is im screwed. which means i gotta get saving for a laptop
It wont let me select safe mode using my keyboard. Maybe because its a bluetooth keyboard. But im able to select settings using F2 so i dont know why up and down keys wouldnt work.

I think F8 is for starting in safe mode. If you have a USB keyboard, it might not work (I think I had that issue once, but it seemed to resolve itself).
