Black screen with commands.

Hi, couldn't find any topics related to my problem: I just put in a new monitor and downloaded Ad-aware and restarted my computer, every time I reboot it a black screen appears with commands. I tried every command and I am returned to the same black screen with commands. If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it.

Re: Black screen with commands.

What exactly are these commands?

Are you speaking of Safe Mode options?

Re: Black screen with commands.

Did you try Safe Mode then System Restore?

If yes and you got rebooted you will need your XP CD?

Is your CD a retail Microsoft CD or an OEM Recovery CD?

If the latter what is the make and model of the computer?

Re: Black screen with commands.

My computer is refurbished, bought it at a computer outlet, and it didn't come with a recovery CD. I assume that's really bad.

Re: Black screen with commands.

If you cannot get past or into Safe Mode then you will need a boot disk.

This would be the XP CD.

You could try using the Recovery Console via the 6 floppy setup disks from Microsoft as seen here:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310994

From here there are 3 commands you can try:

FIXBOOT

FIXMBR

BOOTCFG


If none of these work you will need a full XP CD to run a Repair Installation.
