just thought i'd add that b4 this happened my f12 developer tools screen box kept flashing randomly at the bottom of my screen.......?

+ in safe mode still black screen but the cursor is bigger/fatter like in safe mode......?

+ i'v taken the battery out for 10 mins then put back in and no change......?

+ did get to a command propt screen once and entered fcs /scannow from 1 of the many forum suggestions but it wouldnt scan until it had finished some other scan thing ???? and to press restart so i restarted and by then i'd forgotton how i'd got there in the 1st place lol
