    Hey guys! Im having the start up problem, and I dont know what to do! I have the sony cb2sfx/r sig series which I bought for less than a year.
    It wont boot or anything, when i tried to turn it on, it can get pass the blue screen with the bird, then went to black screen (like DOS screen)
    Ive tried to do the recovery wizard, but it wont do any good or maybe im just doing it wrong, thats why i need your help with this one.

    If i can resolve the problem without any money being spent that would be great, if not it'll be paperweight for now. 😱

    FYI, in future best to refer to nature of your problem in the post title; just "help" or "need help" will attract many fewer otherwise knowledgeable people - of which I am not one as to your issue, sorry.
