Troubleshooting XP home, Pro, X64 and MCE http://www.probz.com/index.php Tue, 09 Feb 2010 17:45:42 +0100 60 http://www.probz.com/index.php?showtopic=4865 My Packard Bell SB85 EasyNote crashed while my son was playing Dragon Age by EA. He unfortunately held down the power-on button during the crash dump forcing the computer to switch off before the dump was complete. On switching on now the screen is divided into four identical horizontal strips with random speckled colours. Attaching an external flat screen is a bit clearer but the bottom half of the screen is divided into vertical black and white patterned bands. The computer refused to boot and the windows repair facility did not work and neither did the packard bell recovery disks. Pressing F11 during switch on activated the Packard Bell recovery properly but despite this the screen is the same and it will not boot giving an error stating that a boot device is not accessible. It was running Vista Home Premium on an Intel Core 2 Duo at 1.5GHz with a 2Gb ram. Does this mean that the Nvidia graphics card is cooked? Is this fixable or do I trash the computer. I tried running it with my spare cloned drive but that made no difference.

But the problem is I go through everything fine and it restarts and goes to the completing installation part for about 30-40 minutes, Then after that I get a black screen that lasts forever been having this problem all day. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong or walk me through this. I need this computer for school and I so can not afford another at the moment.
