If the computer is running it is best to shut down Windows and then turn off the power.
Begin by first clicking on the Start Button and then click on Turn Off Computer.

the tactic you're employing to repair this computing device is almost like sitting interior the cockpit of a jet plane and flipping each change to "discover the only that makes it fly." And now you're asking "which change do I hit to repair each thing?" God purely is acquainted with! What subject are you fixing? Blinking cursors? Is that undesirable? You have been advised (by using whom?) to apply fixboot bootcfg, chkdsk (you think of an element called "boot configuration" might by some potential be on the subject of a boot subject?) And "different issues" for 5 hours? A linux disk to repair a homestead windows device? then you certainly reset the cmos with battery and jumper? That wipes out the cmos configuration, then you definitely ought to reconfigure it. i'm sorry i've got not got a "fix" different than take the computing device to somebody who's acquainted with a thank you to repair desktops. solid luck.

Keep press F8 over and over (don't hold it down) until it comes up with the menu. Choose "Safe Mode with Networking."
