NSOD (no screen of death just death)

ok i have my computer at my friends house as i watch his house while he is out of town... i very carefully got all my cables... i would need (power keyboard mouse etc...) and packed it all up... i brought it over to his house and set it up...

i start it up, starts up fine. enter pass tries to log in... i get to my background image. i get the spinning ball thing no icons no taskbar nothing...at first i figured it was just being slow trying to work out going from 2 monitors too 1...( i have dual monitors at my house and at friends i am only using one) so i let it go for about an hour...i got distracted. still wasnt working so i hit the infamous ctrl+alt+del........ nothing... hit it again.... nothing and a couple more times.... nothing... then i walked away thinking maybe it will load SOMETHING... it did... a black screen with a little popup saying something along the lines of...

"we are sorry but windows was not able to complete your ctrl+alt+del hotkey and bring up security information... to try agian hit esc else restart computer via front button".....

i did esc..... nothing, front button just shuts it down and i start all over... nothing is working so i restart again and think maybe its hardware... so i boot in safe mode... which is where i am posting this from... no problems other than its ugly stupid and not what i want... but it works.... so not a hardware issue.... i need solutions

I would try to go into your display settings and see if it's still setup for dual monitors or look through all the options.

i cant do anything in regular mode... nothing.... in safe mode it is set for regular... i have tried going back to regular after in safe mode but there is no change. oh and when i am in safe mode my audio doesnt work... not a big deal as i hope to have this fixed soon but still thats weird.

You can't boot Windows normally?

Do yoy get an error message , if so what is the exact wording?

its actually a very unprofessional message... you can tell the os was in beta. it is along the lines of but not word for word.. Crtl+alt+delete didnt succeed hit esc to continue or restart computer using front power button... hitting esc just takes me to an unresponsive black screen... restarting just frustrates me more

i really need the help guys this is teh only computer i have and i dont want to have to completely reformat everything... i mean i know i could save it all and everything but it is still a hassle
