Hi everyone. I was given a computer today(Acer Desktop, 1 GB Ram, 160 HD) and was told it would not connect to the internet. After verifying the network card worked fine, I did a scan for spyware(malwarebytes) and viruses(AVG). Neither program found any problems but now the computer will not boot. It shows the welcome screen, plays the annoying boot up sounds and then black screen with the mouse on it. It stays there.
The pc will boot up in SAFE mode.. Please help.
P.S. I have shut everything on startup off in MSCONFIG. When it is stuck on black screen I can call up task manager and execute processes from within task manager. But the PC will not boot to the desktop
