I have had a real issue getting my computer to start up this morning and I wonder if anyone can shed any light on what may be wrong.
First of all I had no screen up at all only the facing on light indicated anything was happening. After a bit of time with the screen was black on no response from mouse or keyword, turned it over gor about 30 mins , when i turned it back on I got the flashing dash at the top left of screen . After some more time the screen came up to say windows had not been shut down normally. The computer has run a disk check And has now loaded as noire .
what could have gone wrong?
many thanks

is it a laptop or a desktop?
what was the last thing you did on it before you the errors? di you do any updates? install new hardware?
this sounds like the beginnings of hardware failure,
when you next get it on, back up all your data...ewwwww what is that...0 -
Most likely wasnt shut down properly
Now might be a good time to backup or create image of drive0
