Can't seem to sign in?

Festive

Hi, so I was trying to reinstall Nvidia drivers since I have been seeing the newest driver destroying cards. I dowloaded DDU and when it said to reboot into safe mode I did. Now, I can't seem to sign in to my PC because it will not accept my 4digit pin anymore and I don't know what to do, I have tried restarting the system but I'm not sure how to make it not boot into safe mode.

 

this is what I see on the sign in page: http://imgur.com/a/pJpbT

Safe mode doesn't allow you to connect to networks. However, Safe Mode with Networking does. If you absolutely need to, use Safe Mode with Networking to use the internet.

 

EDIT: Oh, I see the problem now. Whoops.

Thanks for the reply, but I just want to boot out of safe mode completely.

By "restart", do you mean you shut down and started again, or did you simply hit the "restart" button?

Both lol. I'm connected to Ethernet and it's saying Wifi: no networks found.. This is so confusing.

Did you download the software from a reliable source?

This would be really strange, but... has your account switched from local to Microsoft Account? Try your MS Account password maybe. 

 

EDIT

Nevermind, completely misread that. Is red normal for your action centre and whatnot? Because then I'd say it's an issue with your network card, maybe it's just disabled and you can enable it.
