Ok I'm not that computer advanced as some of you so I need some help. Last night I was just browsing the internet and working on my resume, that's about it. I decided to go to sleep and as usual I left my computer running (I do not turn it off during the semester).
Today I woke up to this picture (not exactly mine says lifestyle ASUS and my monitor is better, but that's semantics

)
First thoughts were along the lines; well it DL'ed some updates and its restarting. The screen was still there after I ate and came back up to my room about 20 minutes later. So I went downstairs and got a wired keyboard, and attempted to click either Delete or Tab - no luck. I guess it was frozen (doh

)
I pushed the restart button and started to ram the delete button - it worked or so i though, the screen said "Entering setup" and that was it - it froze...
Ok another restart - Taped the tab button a few times, it switched to the next screen where it gave me two more options but that was irrelevant because it once again froze and no matter what I pressed nothing would happen.
So um...I'm thinking it DL'ed some update over night (the only reason it restarts on its on really, at least from what i can remember) and something went wrong, and now I have this dilemma.. Can anyone assist me with some help? The only way I know how to fix it is to pop in a new OS cd and reinstall but that would get rid of all my stuff - which is not favorable to say the least. BTW I DO NOT HAVE A CD (it was Noah's) So i would have to go out and buy one.
At least I still have my laptop for school work, I guess
