Hi, Maybe someone can help.
I have win 7 professional on a fit-PC2i I recently purchased.
It has developed a problem.
On boot-up win 7 will open as far as a user account, then when one clicks on an application, Firefox, Computer, Control Panel or whatever the PC freezes and with one more mouse click on anything else the screen grays over so that though one can see whats underneath its not accessible. Thats it, nothing further is possible.
Once this has happened the only way of exiting is to power down the computer. It happens every time I open win 7.
Luckily
I had just downloaded Ubuntu 11.04 to CD to try out, so I am able to write this from there, the PC happily boots from the Ubuntu CD.
Question, what to do?
Should I run the win 7 recovery disc that came with the fit-PC or isn't that appropriate and if I do will I be in danger of loosing all or part of my data?
If thats not appropriate what is?
Being unwillingly new to win 7 I'm at a loss
Thanks
Gunjar
