UIS0 Skin Killed My Rig
I can't boot up......
Monday, June 7, 2010 by RedneckDude | Discussion: Object Desktop
OK, guys. I opened SKS7, new UIS0 skin, named it, added texture to the taskbar and start panel, clicked apply, save changes, and it blurred and locked down.
After waiting a good two minutes or so, I performed a hard reboot, hasn't booted since. Or maybe it has. I do get a black screen and a cursor. No sound, nuttin.
Can't do safe mode, last known good config, nada.

Boot order seems correct...loaded optimized defaults, restarted.no help.
Why and how would a borked windowblind affect boot sequence?

BTW, I have a dual boot system and Vista still boots normally.
I have managed to boot into safe mode, but still, just a cursor and a black screen.

Easy BCD Is what I used to decide which to be the default OS. After that, windows gives me the choice every time I boot.

Ok....
Boot into Win7 safe mode: Elevated Command prompt: sfc /scannow

Boot into Win7 safe mode: Elevated Command prompt: sfc /scannow
All modes give me only a cursor and a blank screen. No command prompts available.

....someday you'll have to explain the logic of that.

I fail to understand how a UIS0 skin can cause this crap. Neil needs to look into this.

Can you boot to Win7 DVD?
Probably, I am currently using a system repair disc that Win 7 lets you create to try system restore. If that fails, I'll try the scannow via startup repair. If all that fails, I do have a spare clone of my 7 drive on a shelf, made a few weeks ago.
