Hi Andy,
My first guess is that you are stuck halfway through the login on an option
that might be start windows in safe mode.
If this is the case, What I'd do is give the computer a good couple of
minutes from turn on, then hit the enter key and sit and wait. If your
computer was sitting on the option to reboot in safe mode, it should
continue in that mode right into the desktop. You likely won't have sound at
this point, But wait a moment or three and you can then try a restart.

Subject: [access-uk] Laptop not seeming to boot
Hi all
I'm using JFW in 40 min mode on my laptop, and things have been ok until
this morning.
I now can't get the laptop to reboot, when I power on, I get no sound, not
even the Vista tinkle tune, and of course, no JFW to tell me if I'm on the
log on screen
I've tried removing the battery, and I've checked if I've muted sound by
inadvertently touching the touch pads above the function keys, but I don't
seem to have done this, I'm pretty sure I'm not getting to the log on
screen!
I can't get Narrator to run, and usually if I put a cd in the drive, it
would come up playing in WMP, but now the drive just spins up to speed, and
then stops again.
Any ideas please? Oh yes, it is plugged in too <smile> -
Andy
