Take the side off, unplug the power, find the battery, take it out. Leave it five minutes, put the battery back in and turn the system back on.

Thanks so much Neil I can boot up now but I am still having problems with the Intel Express Chipset Family under device manager, I can not see windows, desktop icons or my start bar, it's just a blue screen and system restore was turned off by group policy and I can not turn it back on and it says there are no restore points when I know I had some. I can see my picture files but it will not let me burn them onto a disk, if I could just back u p my pic files I would crash and restart, it there a way to do that? Thanks again for all ur help;)

Have you tried using safe mode now that your BIOS has been reset?
