Tried rebooting (both is normal and safe mode) but all I get is a black screen with an arrow.

I'm now running the recovery dvd hopefully a reinstall will do the trick. Might be a long night!

All I wanted was to watch a dvd!

Arrrrghhh! I sympathize. My city is having a free e-cycle event tomorrow so guess what I just loaded up in my car? 3 24" CRTs 1 20" crt, 8 tower type cpus, two small Televisions (no hd) and one Johnson Viking AM Transmitter from the 30's (or so eeek!). I'm sure they are going to accuse me of commercial dumping. but it's really not ... just a 20 year collection.

oh and I smashed a hard drive with a sledge just for you Rumpelteazer!
