Boot Up Problems
I was on my computer one day and it just turned off, I tried to boot it up again but it would get to a dark blue screen with a cursor on it. I ran a test and this is what came up:
Error Code: 2000-0147validation: 30615Msg: Optical DriveO-self test:opu Test Failed
Please tell me what to do to get it back booted.
