No Login Screen and No Power button
My wife's computer just updated last week, and now we can't use it. It boots to the "bright" wallpaper, and then when you pull up on the screen to get to the password, the screen dims a little and nothing else. In the past, the screen dimmed a little and asked you for your password, now it's just the wallpaper. If you wait long enough, it goes back to a bright screen until you clidk on it- it then dims like it is asking you for a password again, but no box to type in. The only thing on the screen is in the bottom right hand corner there is a network icon, but it isn't connected... I tried using my installation media to troubleshoot the startup, but it didn't do anything. I tried to tell it to restore from the startup media screen, but it says there are no image files to restore to. It's driving me bonkers. I opened the command prompt and did a few things I found on these forums, but nothing. Please help!
