Used the victory 8 reset button - and now, just a "No Signal" monitor... no BiOS, no Safe Mode... not nothing

I bought a gateway Desktop PC DX Series DX4860-UR28 (DT GE0AA.004) Intel Core i5 3330 (3.00 GHz) 8 GB DDR3 1 TB drive HARD Windows 8 64-bit. It has been preloaded with Win 8 *. It worked fine until

I went and pressed the RESET BUTTON WIN 8.  My monitor went black and sat there for hours... (I left it overnight.) The next day I turned it and turn it back on.  The PC starts, fans are whirring, the lights are on... and the Viewsonic monitor says: "No Signal" and goes off.  I tried to get into the BIOS by pressing F2, F8, Alt + F10, nothing worked. The computer makes a short beep every 10 to 20 seconds. I turned off the computer. I turn it on again, I turn on the monitor, the monitor button displays the logo of Viewsonic, "No Signal" and goes out, even though I have vainly press F1, F2, F8, F11... that one should I use?    I looked on YouTube to correct the videos.  tried power cycling. I tried to remove and reinstall the sticks of RAM and graphics card. I have tested the monitor so it works with another computer, is not broken. I tried to connect the monitor to the computer with the white and blue led cables and both at the same time.  I tried to remove the video card and put it on with the on board one... nothing. Always impossible to get in the Mode screen without failure or Bios.  What I am doing wrong? Help, please.  I thought using the button Reset Windows 8 would automatically result in a 'clean install' of it.  I wanted to delete my personal files. At this point, I would sell just my computer for junk, but I can't be sure that my files are really erased.  Thank you for all the helpful tips.

    Try resetting your device. This will not erase your data stored on that device.

    • Press and hold the sleep/wake button
    • Press and hold the Home button
    • Press and hold both buttons until the display turns off and on again with the Apple logo on the subject.

    Alternatively, you can go to settings - general - reset - Reset all settings

    If that doesn't work, restore your device to factory settings. Please note that this will delete the data on your device.

    Take a look this Apple Support article: use iTunes to restore the iPhone, iPad or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support.

    As a final step, try recovery mode. Turn off your unit, then plug it to your computer with the hold home button. Hold down Home button until you see the logo of iTunes on the screen of your device. After that on your computer, you should see the iTunes window saying that your device needs to be restored to factory settings. Click Restore.

  • I have reset Firefox and now I've lost the Favorites and the custom toolbar.

    I can't restore my custom toolbar. Got back bookmarks by following the instructions found. I can not understand how to restore the toolbar... I go to the "Troubleshooting" information and I click on the "view files", but the only 'local' in my opinion, is not dated before I reset Firefox and I do not understand ' click on Firefox and while it repairs... etc. ". I am pretty good at following instructions, but these baffle me. Help, please!

    I haven't seen that pop up...

    If you want to try to roll back the clock I can describe a procedure to do this. In short, it would be to create a new folder of parameters (a new Firefox profile), deletion of the contents of this folder and copy the contents of your old data from Firefox on the desktop file.

    Does not take long, if you are interested, but then you have to troubleshoot why the old profile was slow. Here's how:

    Resucitating your profile before reset

    (1) create a new Firefox profile:

    Close Firefox and starts in the Profile Manager, as described in this article:

    Use the Profile Manager to create and delete profiles Firefox

    Any time want spending profiles, close Firefox and come back to this dialog box. When you create a new profile, I recommend that you use the suggested default location, not to delete all profiles without first making backups. For quick reference, name the 12 profile so you can easily recognize.

    (2) when you start in the new profile, it is almost empty. Open the profile folder using

    Help > troubleshooting information > "view file" button.

    The bar of Windows Explorer should show a name combining random characters with 12.

    (3) keep this folder open, exit Firefox. Allow a few moments for Firefox complete update of the files in the profile folder. Then delete the contents of the folder new profile. This will leave you with a profile folder 12 vacuum.

    (4) in a separate window, open the folder of old data from Firefox on your desktop. Copy all the data of this file in the profile folder 12 vacuum.

    (5) run Firefox. It is expected to launch in which looks exactly like your discount to zero prior configuration.

    Now on troubleshooting. If Firefox feels slow, I suggest starting with Safe Mode. It is a standard diagnostic tool in order to avoid interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

    You can restart Firefox in Mode safe help

    Help > restart with disabled modules

    In the dialog box, click on 'Start mode safe' (not Reset)

    Any difference?

    Hi, I was at my computer, typing, and I was trying to hold down the left button. I tried to type a letter near the shift on this side bar and I pushed buttons, and then it turned a sepia tint.

  • How is it that a computer which works very well with a direct Ethernet connection won't work with a switch, however any other computer using the same port, cable, ect, and so on, can?

    Switch issues. Help, please.

    How is it that a computer which works very well with a direct Ethernet connection won't work with a switch, however any other computer using the same port, cable, ect, and so on, can? We already checked the firewall as a question, that it was not, and now, we are puzzled.

    Well, I know that the issue is long-term... believe me, it's a long, but as they say, the devil is in the details. Anywho, the question is, my grandfather has a HP laptop, which for two years has been able to run through a Linksys switch to his router and connect its printers to his laptop. About two months ago it suddenly doesn't work like that. Now, it works fine if it plugs directly into the router/Ethernet. My uncle suggested that the switch was bad, but after testing the same port, cable and all, the switch worked well for him. ' GRAMPS really needs this answered, but someone else, it is called can not understand and now I, in turn, ask you all for what you can offer. Here are the ideas that we have already discredited.

    -Switch bad: as above, is that this particular laptop, even under identical conditions, the works of my uncle very well.
    -Bad NIC: debunked through the fact we connected to the computer directly to the router and it worked fine.
    -Bad configuration of the firewall: we have disabled the firewall (please do not notice, he wasn't the smartest idea, we already know) and even if she recorded the switch exists, the internet is always triggered when you are connected with the switch.

    Thanks in advance for any assistance that you can provide and Merry Christmas to you all.

    It would be useful to consult the results of the ipconfig/all command both when it is connected to the switch and when it is connected directly to the router.  In addition, what is the model of the switch?

    To save the manual copy and the new hits of the ipconfig/all command output-

    First connect through switch.
    Open a command prompt window (start > run > cmd > OK)
    Type the following lines in the black command prompt window and press ENTER after each line

    echo "Connected via the button" > "% UserProfile%\Desktop\ipinfo.txt".
    ipconfig/all > "% UserProfile%\Desktop\ipinfo.txt".

    Now connect directly to the router, type the following lines in the command prompt window and press ENTER after each line

    echo "Connected to the router" > "% UserProfile%\Desktop\ipinfo.txt".
    ipconfig/all > "% UserProfile%\Desktop\ipinfo.txt".
    Notepad '% UserProfile%\Desktop\ipinfo.txt '.
    output

    Copy the contents of the Notepad window in your response (if you use the laptop when it is connected directly to the router) or close the Notepad window, and then copy ipinfo.txt of the laptop to the Gramps in a USB FlashDrive you can connect to any computer allows you to answer.

    You can delete ipinfo.txt on the desktop when you are finished.

    See the Macintosh HD, as a boot volume, you could restart from OS X Recovery to
