MY MONITOR WON'T DISPAY ANYTING OTHER THAN A FLASHING CURSOR IN THE LEFT TOP CORNER. THIS HAPPENED AFTER I DOWNLOADED THE NEWSET VERSION ON iTUNES, IN ORDER TO INSTALL SAID PROGRAM YOU MUST RESTART YOUR COMPUTER, WELL AFTER IT RESTARTED THIS IS WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURRED. NOW I CAN'T EVEN GET INTO IT TO DE-INSTALL THE PROGRAM. CAN ANYONE HELP?

Try to enter the start-up page by rebooting and instantly toggling the F8 key. When you get into the start-up page choose Safe Mode and then navigate to add remove and uninstall the Itunes garbage!

Once I thought I was wrong, now I'm not so sure!
