Restart the system and hold the f8 key.


Select safe mode.

If it loads into safe mode. Just restart the system. If it does not work. Come back and explain.

Can you post the image of the F8 key process(safe mode option screen)?

Now, do this and report what your findings:

1. Try to remove the battery and charger from the main power source.

2. Hold down the power button for 10 seconds.

3. Reconnect the battery and charger.

4. Hold down F8 key(don't remove your finger until you see the Safe mode screen) and power it on.

Explain more on the "not starting" is it that it is not booting properly or does not power on at all.

thanks knight.i delected the programs file and cant even find it from the recycle bin.

topudo: thanks knight.i delected the programs file and cant even find it from the recycle bin.

Please try to do a system restore if there is an active restore point in ur system, to see if the program folder will be restored, btw how did u go about deleting the program folder, windows would have warned you about the action u where about to take. If the system restore does not work for you, try to create a folder in ur local drive C: name it Program file, then you will have to re install your applications one by one. If this process may be a little challenging 4 u and u have enough data plan to download file scavenger, download the application and use it to scan for lost files, problem is recovery software are best optimized if the drive with the missing folder is hosted to another system, but this should not prevent u from trying.

I was watching a movie on my system today in my room wen my sister came in and i paused it. After she left, i tried playing the movie burr it would not play, i thought it was hanging and i let it be.
After some time, it still wld nt play, so i tried switching off the system. It brought this message in a blue background, quite long, white prints, for a split second before going off....all i could catch was ''windows has undergone a problem'' or sumfin lyk dat.
I tried switching it on back burr it would stop booting at the samsung welcome page. Later on, it was booting burr discovered my keypads aint working...not all, burr most of it therefore i cannot type my password.
I switched it on and off severally and the keypads aint still working.
So i pressed F2 for setup at the samsung welcome page and did sum security things... I changed d supervisor's password nd sum oda tings.

The keypads aint still working, my project is on ds PC and i got no backup.
Please help me!

Uninstall the updated driver and install the old one.

It depends on the generation of the processors! More information is needed to tell the best out of the two.

What you need to do is to start ur system, from safe mode. When u start the system, tap the F8 button repeatedly, and select safe mood, then check if u can log into Windows. If it goes thru, u can now restart the system and c if the keys work.

Of course, there are utility softwares that helps recover lost files, that is no problem. If u r sure and not assuming that t'was the OS that crashed, then u need to find the cause, maybe ur Hdd is failing or the memory. Try file scavenger pro or recover my files pro, but it this case a working system will be needed to host ur hardisk.
