Windows 8.1
Hi Guys I hope someone can help!
I tried to boot into safe mode so I pressed win key + R got run cmd , typed msconfig and instead of going to "start up" I clicked on "Boot" and "Network" and then "Restart".
Upon restarting I got the "enter password" so I did and now it doesn't recognize it, I have a 4 fig password.
( I did have another P/W which I used when I first got the machine I kept forgetting so I changed to the 4 Fig instead so I wondering if by some weird reason its looking for the old P/W, then I'm defiantly screwed!)
I tried to go in as a guest account but it didn't work either! Well I thought I'll do a complete shutdown and restart which didn't work as well. I rebooted and went F2/Del and after a minute up came the UEFI files
I 'm used to the old BIOS boot screens so I didn't know where to start and that's where I am now.
Can someone please keep me?
Update 14:10 Local Time
"The System" is not seeing C drive that's why I can't do anything in either system restore or refresh!
When I tried to re-install windows 8, the partition table that appears so you can choose which to use didn't show C drive at all. The only way in is thru command prompt and I don't know what to type anyway!
