This morning, i turn on my computer as usual but nothing on the computer's screen at all except it says that my computer is in safe mode.
Oh, the computer's power is on, but the OS win 7 is not started yet, then why the computer is in safe mode?
I could not understand why at all. I turned the computer off and turn it on again...but it is the same...no signal to the keyboard, nothing on the screen...
The computer worked normal yesterday.
Do you guy know what is happened to my computer? help me please...Thank in advance!!

Here is a way to troubleshoot from member TVeblen:
Strip it down and then add components back, one at a time, to try and isolate the offending component.
The test (power off, power cord unplugged):
• Disconnect everything externally connected except the mouse and keyboard (printers, USB devices). If you are not using a wired mouse and keyboard see if you can borrow one.
• Disconnect the power and data cables from all the drives inside the computer (Hard drives, DVD/CD drives).
• Remove all the cards installed in the PCI slots including the video card. (be careful handling them and place them on a non conductive surface while testing).
• Remove all the RAM sticks (same rules as above).
Now connect the power cord and turn the PC on.
• The motherboard should start beeping. You should get a beep code that tells you there is no memory. This is good, it means the processor is functioning and the motherboard is good so far.
• Now add one stick of memory in Slot A1 and power on. More beeping: "no video card" beep code. This is good.
• Then add the video card and connect it to the monitor. You should get no beeping and you should see the BIOS screens, ending with the message that there is no boot device.
If you get no video then switch the one memory stick installed for another one and test.
Continue adding components one at a time.
If at any point the PC fails the the last component added was the problem one.
If you removed everything and there is only the Motherboard (with integrated video), processor, and power supply to contend with and it does not POST or show anything on the screen, then the problem is one of those three.
If you have tested by using another power supply then you are down to two. CPUs rarely fail, so motherboard is the most likely guess.
Try performing a CLRTC or Clear CMOS as a last ditch effort, and check the 3v battery. Both long shots, but you have nothing to lose at this point.

As i know Windows 7 is totally different compare with other
windows is really with high performance. I like windows 7.
Sometime USB is works late with windows 7 especially with latest
keyboard created with USB.
You have to find a software related to the windows 7 that could
support it.

There's a repair utility built in with the Win 7 installer disk. You should try to repair the OS by booting up the computer with the CD-ROM drive as the first boot device (CMOS setting) with the Win 7 installer in it, then follow the directions from there.

your computer need to reinstall. it happen because windows 7 can't accept almost all software, even software developer say they software support for window 7

No, nothing in the screen at all, it is a note from the screen only, it is not real in the safe mode. When the computer run in the safe mode, the OS is run too..but in here, nothing at all, i hear a fan noise but no signal from the OS ans long as to the keybooard...

lovedude is correct. The most likely problem is a hardware issue. Sometimes when I take my computer on vacation the RAM will come loose or the video card will come loose. If it's a PC simply open it up, turn off your power box (and make sure its unplugged!) and go through each connection in the computer and disconnect it then reconnect it again.
Be sure not to be anywhere with static electricity or you will fry your components. If this doesn't work you'll need to reformat and do a reinstall of your OS.

i agree with lovedude.
when i meet these problems with my pc,first i will check the power of the pc, make sure the light of the power is bright, make sure the fan of the power is running. maybe the power is broken. if these are fine , you can discharge the CMOS, you can remove the battery which on the motherboard for a few seconds. or clean and test ram sticks just like lovedude's suggestion
