Hi ednewmy...


What recommendations ?? have you tried.


Black screen with Blinking cursor is not the worse scenario.


It suggests your PC is alive..


Some causes of a black screen are incorrect shutdown of your computer,

not waking from sleep mode.


Try booting in safe mode. then perform a Clean Shutdown. then reboot.


Obvious things to do would be insure you have no external devices connected to your PC.

Check you that there is no disc left in your CD drive.

If you bios is set to boot from CD as first option this could cause your problem..

Hello Ednewmy,


I've used this chap in the past and he excellent. Paul at Databugs. The link is here : http://databugs.co.uk/ or on 0207 701 6077.

I'm not sure if he repairs on Sundays but he certainly accepts calls. I, and many friends, have used him and he is speedy, conscientious and very reasonably priced.


Hope your computer gets better soon. I know that feeling!

Thanks to all who replied here and PM'ed me. Unfortunately I cannot reply to PMs using my phone - it is a conplete nightmare. I found somewhere open on a sunday and it is currently being repaired. Hopefully it should be done today...hopefully! If they do a good jpb I will recommend them on here. Their quoted price is very reasonable so far and so long as there are no hidden extras!

    • How on earth can someone like this be allowed to continue as a solicitor? Can't be just be struck off, or the equivalent?
    • There are no road works in front of Cod fellas and yesterday when I requested a stop there the driver went straight past and never stopped untill Avondale Riss. As cars have to stop because of the lights why can busses not do this? 1 minute Bloodly mindedness.

    • Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm
