my rig died :cry:
Friday, May 7th, 2010Cole
Boot up, normally it bluscreens with an IFN_Corrupt message, Ive run Memtest, and done Windows Memtest, I have all the right drivers for my AMD 1480 card
Today I came home tried to boot up and it went to Recovery manager I exited and turned off my computer, i restarted in Safe mode and this message popped up:”C:\Windows\system32\authui.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support.”
I’m on this site:http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7install/thread/e335688c-3e33-48e3-ad13-1550a01227ff right now and followed it until the command prompt part, however Chk/F/R brings up a prompt that says this is locked, so I coulnd‚Äôt respond ‚Äúy‚Äù as the website told me too.
As you know whenever Id boot up Id bluescreen after windows booted up it would say PFN_Corrupt, and restart, Id simply boot up in Safe mode and then reboot and everything would be hankey dory
This website seems to be my best bet:http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/568-63-bsod-pfn_list_corrupt
But I have all my correct drivers.
Anywho all was semi good until my new error: “Windows\system32\authui.dll ” Now it will do nothing but pop up and the only site I can find that adresses this is onw which tells me to do system recovery/command prompt/Chkdsk/F/R, this results in my comp saying its locked, so i cant really do anything else. I then ran the Windows Mem Test and it “failed to restart”(my computer after the test finished)
Its finals week here at UCB and I need my comp can u guys help?
SEAL and Jooo use your magic powers to make my rig semi usable again plz

I put all the parts together: But when I hook up my rig the monitor is unresponsive, the keyboard and Mouse also are not receiving power.
All the other parts are, you can see the LED and Fans on every component. and the Dsic DVD drive we took out of my old computer seems to be working.
I hooked up my rig to my roomates Monitor and still nothing.
Any possible solutions?
