I've only had my laptop a month (give or take) and today when I turned it on and after I tried to logon the screen went black. I restarted it and tried again several times and still the screen turned black. I tried to reset it to factory settings using the function keys and it did nothing. Please help!

Hi,
Try the following.
Boot the computer normally and log-in.
At the black screen, hold down the ctrl and alt keys and press delete.
Select Task Manager.
Click on File and select Run new task.
Type rstrui - also enter a tick in the box for 'Create this task with administrative privileges' - and click Ok.
When the system restore interface has loaded, pick a restore point at least 48 hours before the log-on issue first occurred and then proceed with the system restore.
Regards,
DP-K
