    cant press F1 to accept reboot, leads to computer being blocked


    Hi. I have a HP laptop/tablet and for a few months i havent been able to a windows update, so i thought i would reboot it, but at one point a black screen with blue texts came basicaly asking me to accept by pressing F1 or refusing with F2 but i cant press any of them and my computer is blocked in this mode and cant turn it off, i tried letting the batterie die but when i charged it again it was the same thing.


    I realy need help with this cause i realy cant do anything and have seen nothing about this on any forums.


    Thanks for taking the time to read this even if you dont know how to fix it.

    :)

    I'm going to try some of the things that you guys suggested now.

    Well, I figured out what was wrong. It took all of about 2min. of investigation, LOLz. I just never took the time to try to figure it out because it really didn't bother me to press F1.

    Thanks for the help guys!
