Hello Coonut,

Thank you for your reply,

I would suggest you to login to any other computer and create a Windows 8 installation disk. Using that disk you can perform the troubleshooting methods given below.

Refer the link to create the installation disk:

    Sasbian has nailed it. I began removing memory sticks. Once all Korean 'Hynix' 1 GB sticks mixed with Samsung 2 GB were gone, system responded normally.  My bios troubleshooting mode caught it also. Bios would not catch it on boot. It is AMI Bios on an ASUS MB in a HP d-5000t. Just ordered all Crucial memory. DONT MIX MEMORY MANUFACTURERS!

    Can someone PLEASE help me?

    I tried everything and still, nothing works!

    I got my laptop with (and still) Windows 8, I don't have a CD with Windows 8.

    Backup step by step = didn't work

    Comands posted here = didn't work

    Removing all usb's = didn't work

    Refresing the computer = didn't work

    Restauration of system (first option on advanced options) = didn't work

    PLEASE, someone help me, I don't know what else to do and I can not lose all my personal files.
