The black screen says to push 'R' when i get to the first screen but whatever i do it wont go away

reboot using the key HOLD the key CTRL +F11 OR F12 depend of your computer model use restore factory default. or reboot using disck or USB.
Other wise restart HOLD the key CTRL+F8with network, and use the CHKDSK command for repair.

God bless you

Not sure, but try loading Safe Mode by pressing F8 during boot and lowering screen resolution. In Safe Mode you can even run System Restore. It load to a previous date that you choose.

Try pressing CTRL and the minus key -, at the same time, then keep holding CTRL and tap the - key again. This, on websites, makes things smaller. Let me know if that worked, or if not, post again and I will help further.

Try doing this. Turn off the unit, remove the battery, press and hold the power button (while battery is out), then put the battery back and turn it back on. If that doesn't work, just repeat the steps including removing the Sim Card. Or turn on the unit without a Sim Card.

You can also try using reset codes but that would reset EveryThing back to default settings which might include losing the settings of your provider which is not recommended. But the initial step is safe to use.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

Try rebooting using the original the original Windows that came with your computer

you need to click ctrl+alt+del hit cancel and it will work :)

Turn off notebook. Remove the battery. Press Power button. Notebook should start working. Wait for 15 secs. If the screen still blank press Power button and hold it for approx. 4 seconds until notebook is powered off. Then press power button again. Bingo, problem should be solved.

you should re-format the HDD, using third party bootable CD, such as Hiren's BootCD.

When the screen is black, try pressing Ctrl + Alt + Del; a soft reset should kick it back into gear. Did the laptop shut down unexpectedly due to power loss/overheating/etc..?

You need to go to HP.com and download updates. Sometimes the all-in-ones will need them after adding new ink. Also stay away from generics inks they will cause problems. Hope this helps.
