I tried to turn on Solo this morning to check e-mail and stuff before school. And nothing happened. Actually, I think it's some sort of display problem, because when you hit the power button, the little Microsoft logo pops up, it looks like everything is fine, but nothing shows up on the screen. It stays that strange lit up black color. No blue screen of death. Nothing.
The damndest thing is that my computer is loading normally except for nothing showing up on the laptop screen. My start up sound plays. I even fiddled around blindly and I could bring up a fucking Microsoft Word document. I know this because the little dog helper thing barked at me (I detest Clippy).
I can even hit the Windows button on the keyboard, bring up the task menu, and restart the laptop. Yes, I know how to do all this from memorization of keystrokes.
I tried restarting. I tried hitting the power button again to force the lapotop to hibernate. I even *cringe* unplugged and pulled out the battery to force the laptop to stop working. Nothing works and nothing pops up on the screen.
And yes, I hit F9 during start up to try to fix it, but while THAT screen pops up, my desktop won't.
Please help me?
Oh... I'm running Windows XP. I also have AOL 9.0 installed. And Solo is a Sony Viao laptop.
I can't live without Solo! All my work is on him! And no internet!
