  25. Good day Mutahhar Bashir. I have samsung laptop. its win 8.1 and i want to downgrade to win7 and so i change the bios settings but i think i made the wrong settings in the bios so when i save and restart it will go until the samsung logo and below there is [f2 setup] [f4 recovery]. and it keeps restarting again and again. i tried f2, f4, f10, f12, f8, esc. actually all the f's but no luck for me. pls help.

  26. Switch off, remove adapter, remove battery
    Remove ram, hold power button for one minute.
    Insert battery switch on.

  27. hi again sir. "Switch off, remove adapter, remove battery
    Remove ram, hold power button for one minute.
    Insert battery switch on. " —– i tried this but still no luck for me sir.. 🙁 what is wrong with this. i hope you can help sir. thanks

  28. If you have 2 rams, try to use each one by one not both together,
    Try to change cmos battery.
    Remove hdd and try to switch on and enter bios

  29. Sometimes overheating might be issue.
    Try to clean ventilators
