posted by kyork39 on Sep 23, 2008


entered the cd-rom disk that came with my new video camera. after entering the cd the program was working fine. I shut the computer off
and the next time I turned the computer on it booted up and a screen with
the e-machine logo showing a big E on the screen locked up. I have not been able to get by that screen with the E whenever I boot the computer.

Try to reboot the machine in safe mode. This is generally done with the F8 key. To do this...start computer, make sure F lock key light is on and hold down the F8 function key. It will ask whether you want to start in several different ways: Safe Mode, Last Known Good Configuration, Normal, etc. Try Safe Mode. Go to Start>Control Panel>System. Under System Properties>Device Manager and look for Yellow exclamation points. Delete all of the exclamation points (make sure you have your original system disk). The video camera will probably be listed. Hope this helps.
