Boot up in safe mode and change it back to what it was and if it doesn't work do a system restore to the most recent date available.

I dont know how to get to system restore or safe mode the uefi doesnt have a safe mode i belive any other ideas by any chance???

yup,best thing is to try to boot in safe mode and hopefully it will work, then get rid of the theme.

to boot in safe mode press f8 while restarting

I hate safe mode in windows 8... Windows 7 you could just press f8... Spam shift-f8 as soon as you press the power button. When a blue window pops up click "see advanced repair option", then click "troubleshoot", then "advanced options", then "windows startup settings", and finally click "enable safe mode".

No, shift-f8 doesn't always open advanced boot options. Since you can't access your desktop you can't reboot into safemode...
Directly from MS:
There are two ways to get to the Windows Startup Settings screen in Windows 8 :

*If you're not signed in to Windows, tap or click the power icon Power icon from the sign-in screen, hold Shift, and then tap or click Restart

*Or, if you're already signed in:

1 Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, tap Settings, and then tap Change PC settings.
(If you're using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer down, click Settings, and then click Change PC settings.)

2 Under PC settings, tap or click General.

3 Under Advanced startup, tap or click Restart now.

4 On the Choose an option screen, tap or click Troubleshoot.

5 Tap or click Startup Settings.

6 Tap or click Restart.

7 On the Startup Settings screen, choose the startup setting you want.

8 Sign in to your PC with a user account that has administrator rights.

Some options, such as safe mode, start Windows in a limited state where only essential programs are started.

Does system restore work?

Borna44 · Aug 3, 2014

modernwar99 :

No i refreshed

Borna44 · Aug 3, 2014

modernwar99 :

Anyways how i fix my new problems?

modernwar99 · Aug 3, 2014

Borna44 :

It sounds like a mobo problem. Open up control panel, click "System and security" and then click "System". Scroll to the bottom and check the Windows activation. If it says it isn't activated and there's no "Product ID" boot back up in safe mode and do a system restore to the most recent restore point. You won't lose any documents, only recently installed programs.
