cluberti Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Well, the obvious question is, what happens when you boot into safe mode or to VGA mode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kartel Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 That may be your APIC mode.If it is diabled it does that, otherwise does F8 work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthsfate Posted October 10, 2006 Author Share Posted October 10, 2006 (edited) if i try to get into safe mode it says "windows cannot finish installation in safe mode" .. but its still a black screen in power save mode even if i leave it like that for 6 hoursand how do i disable apic?

FireGeier Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Have you tried to press the F5-Key when setup prompts you to press F6 for RAID-drivers?Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
