Got the ram, no luck. Popped it in and pressed F1 to continue after memory change and get a black screen. can't get to boot menu with F8.
Downloaded windows 7 recovery disk, changed boot sequence, booted to disk.
recovery disk shows windows installation just fine. tried auto recovery and no problems found. tried system restore back to 11/26 and it went through but still no luck.
went to command prompt from recovery disk. changed to c:\windows
tried to type explorer.exe. windows pops up that file EXPLORERFRAME.dll is missing.
Copy explorerframe.dll off of my desktop and onto the laptop. (placed in windows\system32\. It asks to overwrite file (so it is there, thought maybe it is corrupt.) I press yes to overwrite.
Try c:\windows\explorer.exe. same error about explorerframe.dll missing.
tried reboot and still jsut a black screen.
Any suggestions from here?
