well i tried to get on my laptop today and it was being slow and then it shut down without warning so i decided to put it back to a previous state and then when it got done with restoring it (about 30 minutes) it was right at before the welcome screen then it restarted itself and it keeps doing that until i shut it off and it does it even when i try putting it into safe mode i have no ideas on how to fix it even searched for answers and the hp site but no luck so if someone could try to help me if it's at possible and with that i am not gonna be able to be on the server until i can either get my laptop fixed, my dad buys me another laptop or i get a job to buy one myself and i will be on the forums as much as i can

That's the longest sentence i have ever read. Try to organise your future posts a bit, it will be easier to read ;)

And i dont really see what the problem is, it reboots itself after 30seconds?
Try to reinstall the OS.

Lol i guess i should organize my posts. But i can't do anything really, because right before i get to the welcome screen in either normal windows or safe mode, my laptop restarts. It doesn't allow me to do anything at all because apparently i got a virus that totally screwed it up while i was trying to restore it.

Boots; and if ya press enough buttons goes to the restore page (to give you false hope of ever fixing this thing) then you restore it and does same shit over and over and over again?

Try unplugging anything external then if this fails remove cd rom - otherwise is it under any warranty?

Do you have a CD with an OS install on it?
If so you need to go to Bios, and set it to start from CD, or something like that.
You can go to Bios when you press f12 when its starting if i recall correctly.
