Black Screen Of Death, and No System Restore (LogonUI)

[LewisCMoon]

Hey everyone,

I'm new to these forums but I really hope you can help me.
I've got a PC with an Asus motherboard that isn't too old (Maybe 2 years?)
and today I've run into some serious issues that I've never even heard of before.

So I booted up my computer this morning as I do every morning and it came up with a red box
that said something about a logonui error and CHKDSK.
(I'm sorry I can't remember exactly what it said, I was a bit shocked and hit OK without thinking)

Anyway, so after I clicked ok on this box the screen stayed black, just with my mouse cursor on the screen.

So after a while of waiting I decided to just hit the reset button on my computer. Then I think was the CHKDSK
thing started doing something with all of my files, there was a lot of white text filling the screen and every
couple of lines it would say the word CHKDSK.

This went on for quite a long time so I thought maybe it was sorting itself out. Safe to say it did not.
The black screen of death came back with just my little mouse cursor.

I did a little bit of online looking around and a lot of people suggested doing system recoveries and stuff so
I dug out my Windows disc that came with the computer and popped it in and hit F8 so I could boot it up.

When i selected System recovery it seemed to be doing it but after a while the box would just disappear and nothing would happen.

So it seems that I can't get past the black screen of death and even with the Windows Disc I can't perform any
kind of system recovery.

Has anybody got any kind of help for me? It'd be really, really appreciated.

Thanks

Unless your BIOS has an option to start the one-time Boot Menu with F8, it is not how you boot from the repair disk. Is this F8 menu the one with Safe Mode and such? You can go into BIOS and set the 1st boot device to CD-DVD. Or just disregard this if you are sure you are booting with the CD.

Did you try Safe Mode yet? Are you getting the black screen after/before windows logo, at welcome screen or after logging in.
