Ok thanks I tried tapping F11 and it did something, but then I got struck by the blue screen of death! I did back up all my data so I'm not worried about files. What I AM worried about is my OS because I have no discs. How can I get back my original OS/factory settings?? Recovery is getting the blue death and in windows its getting equivalent error messages. What left is there to do except re-format and scrounge up an OS from some pirate website..
