sorry for the late reply. I finally got around to trying this, as i was typing it in everything came back, but the screen still goes black for about 2 minutes after i log on. MAybe something is causing a major delay. I really dont ewant to have to resort to wiping my hard drive as I would have no idea where to get all the
drivers needed to make my trackpad, fn keys, and all my stuff work properly again, not to mention 120 gigs of steam games.
