Hello, could you help me with this: I been using Windows 8 Consumer preview for several months. It was installed over Vista. Everything worked more than fine, untill about two weeks ago when I install AVG 2012. After that, I couldn't open any program from desktop. Did system restore, removed AVG and it worked again. But since I do trust AVG, yesterday I installed it again.
This time however, system restore did work strangely, took long time telling me for almost 25 minutes that is fixing registry. It went on and on. Finally I turned computer hard way - with a switch. Today I can start it to the point when it goes through its initial sequence OK, it shows "booting fish" and there is as well
rotating timer. Then it stops, screen remains black, however mouse pointer is visible and moving properly on the screen. That is as far as I can go. There is no splash screen for sign in.
I'm not a young guy (76 year old) and even if I used computers for many years - since DOS 2.4 - I'm at lost what to do, to come up with finding some kind of working f solution. Please could anybody help me? Very much appreciated.
Thank you very much in advance, Milda.
