Hi I'm new to the site and decided that I had to try something to fix my problem I have been plagued by this for 3 years and decided to do something about it so i hope you guys can help.
Ok I should let you know I am veeeeery noobish to technology regarding computers which explains my name so there will be somethings i don't understand so please bare that in mind when explaining somethings to me.
Alright so I have a hp dv9700 and when i start it up it starts up at the bios screen like normal but for some reason it takes like a few minutes to continue on but i just wait that out no problem what my real problem is when i reach the windows 7 start-up screen after a little bit i wait for the logo to pop up in the middle of the screen and I 9.5 times out of 10 will see the most evil thing known to me an annoying weird dot in the very center of the screen that at closer glance looks like a reeeeeally small windows logo at first i tried waiting it out to see would load and no dice so I am forced to restart by holding the power button down and shutting it off I restart and the thing is I cant even run the windows repair option that it recommends every time because it just gives me a black screen after the little loading bar is gone so thats not an option I had this problem temporarily fixed before. I took it to my tech teacher at my last school who helped me repair the screen because it wasn't working before but replaced a wire that connected the monitor to the motherboard for free!!! so cool to that but i still had that startup problem so what he did was take a widows 7 os disc and I think he launched the repair option and some other stuff so that stopped the problem for like 2 months and then the little dot returns and i have no idea how to fix it but here's the funny part when I use my laptop there is a veeeery rare chance it will actually start-up and everything works fine till i have to restart for updates then i worried thinking oh god not again pls no not the dreaded updates I always put it off by putting the 4 hour delay but eventually it will claim my laptop and restart by itself and im stuck praying for a start-up again I HATE this problem it has me fearing the restart option please help in any way you can I have had to deal with this problem for 2 to 3 years
