ok, so here is my story. I had a spyware issues which i was unable to delete, wanted to go into safe mode and was not able to access via the F8 feature. Went thru the msconfig and now, my pc turns on but i can't see anything my screen is black however my keyboard does turn on and if i click on stuff i can hear the CPU actually working. Plugged my monitor to a different pc and it's working ok. Can i go back to normal windows?
