ReactOS is still in heavy development - not all that much real hardware is supported yet. If your system is unsupported, just keep using your usual OS for now.

Lets hope you haven't screwed up your laptop partitions or boot sectors.
I'm really hoping you installed on an old machine and NOT your main device...
You should have read the installation instructions before you installed on real hardware. Reading instructions are ESSENTIAL before you install an o/s especially an alpha-grade o/s.

If you have access to the internet from another computer, then I suggest that you down load hiren's bootcd or from here. Hopefully, you should be able to boot the cd and use some of the very useful apps; like Testdisk which can recover lost partitions and restore them, also there are apps to check your mbr.
I hope that you get your computer booting again!

Is that a Compaq computer? And do you have the rescue discs that came with it? If you can't get it to boot, you may need to wipe the drive and reinstall your OS from scratch. Which would really suck, but should fix any disk partition issues.jtrent238 Bo wrote:I installed Reactos in a vm and it worked fine, but when it instaleed in on my laptop it just stop at the boot screen

I suggest that you go into the BIOS setup and disable the splash screen, then you should be able to see why the computer is not booting.jtrent238 Bo wrote:I cant get the computer to turn on now

Please report back here if you do decide to follow my suggestion and tell us what the screen says. Someone here, hopefully, should be able to help you!
